Reading Lily Brett's essays is like spending time with a uniquely clever, loving and sympathetic friend - who is also an enormously gifted writer.

This new collection of essays will delight and enthral her readers.

Set between journeys to the places of its title, Between Mexico and Poland traces a number of emotional voyages as Lily Brett turns a brutally honest and unflinching eye on herself.

In her most honest and personal book yet, she ranges from the devastation of losing her home to fire several years ago, to powerful insights into her adopted city, New York, and how it has changed forever since September 11.

In the voice Brett's readers have come to rely on - self-scrutinising, self-mocking, always hilarious - Between Mexico and Poland offers the unsparing Brett candour full-on.
