2 more quotes

“Like All Fours , A Little Bit Bad has a careering plotline, flying between the everyday drudgery of mom-life, and a heightened, surreal or imagistic mode”

The Guardian (UK) · Daisy Hildyard · Rave
“A Little Bit Bad has all the hallmarks of a witty thriller, but the split narrative timeline allows for more than mere mystery.”
