Something Might Happen - (Man Booker Prize 2003)
Thoughts, like a loud noise that interrupts a silence, can be disturbing. They can shock in their reality and their honesty - and honesty is something we are very scared of. Perhaps this is why Julie Myerson’s book is so difficult to read; not because of the deliberate lack of ‘action’, but because of its sometimes uneasy frankness.
