Nell Zink & Nicola Barker: Our Big, Strange World

Great comic novels remind us that the world is bigger and weirder than we think. Camilla Grudova joins two modern virtuosos of this enduring form: Nell Zink and Nicola Barker. Zink's Sister Europe takes us on a rambunctious, hedonistic tour of Berlin; Barker's TonyInterruptor pursues the truth of the titular disruptor. Both will remind you that fringe behaviour has much to say about us all - that's the crux of the comic spirit.
