Harriet Armstrong & Rosalind Brown: Lessons in Inner Life

Two razor-sharp debut novelists talk with Sasha de Buyl about the fitful, lurching paths we take on the coming-of-age journey. Harriet Armstrong’s To Rest Our Minds and Bodies is a poignant, wry portrait of a young woman struggling to retain a sense of self in the final year of her undergrad, while Rosalind Brown’s Practice exquisitely depicts the minutiae of a day in the life of a very fastidious student writing an essay on Shakespeare’s sonnets.
