Few writers give me such consistent pleasure
*Zadie Smith*
She has such great psychological insights into human beings, which
is rare. She is one of the best fiction writers writing today
*Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie*
As discrete entities, Hadley’s short stories are intense, miniature
novels in themselves; bound together in a novel, they become
quietly brilliant, offering an incisive exploration into how life’s
individuals episodes add up to a meaningful whole.
*Sunday Times*
Hadley is a writer of exceptional intelligence and skill and, for

subversive talent.
*Observer*
