She can't escape herself ... or her toxic boss, Holly. And it's Valentine's Day.
'The Knowing is a pacy novel. Ryan has great control over the rhythm and momentum of the short chapters through which it progresses, which makes the ever-increasing pressure on Camille all the more palpable ... The Knowing is a visceral and sensual novel that is very much concerned with what it means to be a body in the world, and the ways in which we might attend to its pleasures and demands. It is deliciously funny - mostly because of Camille's sharp, wry wit, which is always tempered by her slight awkwardness - and deeply empathetic. A distinctive, assured work.' -Fiona Wright, The Saturday Paper
'Ryan's prose zips along at a giddy pace - it's whip-smart, original, full of wit and glass-sharp observations, and Camille is hilarious, sparkly company. The Knowing is a timely, absorbing, fun, and acutely observed study of human nature.' -Julia Kelly, The Irish Times
