'One of the best novels I've read in years: obsessive, intimate and very funny' Blake Morrison, Author of Two Sisters

'Stunning . . . it almost feels transgressive' Anthony Cummins, Daily Mail

'One of the most startling novels I've read this year' Frances Wilson, TLS

'This book is brilliant - brave, truthful and intelligent' Wendy Cope

'Funny, philosophical, sobering and wise, Crazy is crammed with insight and laced with great sentences' Claire Kilroy, Guardian

'I will break him; he will break me, and when we are broken, we will be even, and then we can be put back together again'

Jane has been accustomed to clever, undemonstrative men. So when, as a young woman, she meets Ardu, she is instantly bewitched by his intellect and detachment. What starts as a crush turns into something far darker, an all-consuming obsession, from which, years later, she is still reeling.

Crazy is a work of autofiction, a startling story of obsessive love, addiction, motherhood and work. It is a reckoning with fiction and with truth: how these things play out on the body; what it takes for a woman to write out her own life.

Industry Reviews

This book is brilliant - brave, truthful and intelligent

Dealing candidly with work, sex and motherhood this searing auto-fictional novel . . . an absolute belter - Daily Mail

I have yet to read a better account of the way in which the tales we tell about ourselves are themselves a form of addiction - TLS

Stunning . . . a satisfyingly rich and complex narrative that rings so messily true to life, it almost feels transgressive - Daily Mail

Terribly funny, appallingly grim, acutely observed. It's wonderful

Crackles with energy, integrity and a deep poetic sensibility - Julia Copus

Set amid the debris of a marriage which still haunts her, Feaver's beautifully written and startlingly frank book is so humane in its hard-won wisdom that every reader will recognise themselves in it
