Offcomer

A remarkable debut — a novel of quiet and real power.

“Offcomer” is Lancashire dialect for an outsider. Claire, the daughter of a Jewish mother and a Gentile father, is a young woman with low self-esteem, no sense of who she is, and little in the way of feeling beyond her recourse to mutilating herself by “cutting”.
