There are elements of Doris Lessing in the writing – a huge emerging talent here’ Fiona Shaw ‘A towering literary achievement’ Ruth Hogan, author of The Keeper of Lost Things Rachel and Eliza are planning their future together. One night in bed Rachel wakes up terrified and tells Eliza that an ant has crawled into her eye and is stuck there. Rachel is certain; Eliza, a scientist, is sceptical.
