The breathtaking new novel from Eimear McBride, about an extraordinary, all-consuming love affair

Eimear McBrideâ€™s debut novel A GIRL IS A HALF-FORMED THING was published in 2013 to an avalanche of praise: nominated for a host of literary awards, winner of the Baileyâ€™s Womenâ€™s Prize for Fiction and the inaugural Goldsmithâ€™s Prize, declared by Vanity Fair to be "One of the most groundbreaking pieces of literature to come from Ireland, or anywhere, in recent years," McBrideâ€™s bold, wholly original prose immediately established her as a literary force. Now, she brings her singular voice to an unlikely love story.
Â
One night an eighteen-year-old Irish girl, recently arrived in London to attend drama school, meets an older man â€“ a well-regarded actor in his own right.Â While she is naive and thrilled by life in the big city, he is haunted by more than a few demons, and the clamorous relationship that ensues risks undoing them both.
Â
A captivating story of passion and innocence, joy and discovery set against the vibrant atmosphere of 1990s London over the course of a single year, THE LESSER BOHEMIANS glows with the eddies and anxieties of growing up, and the transformative intensity of a powerful new love.
