Meet Rosanna Lerner for her first novel, Pussy Suicide, published by Grasset

‘Alone in her room, her eyes riveted to her phone, Ottessa waits for a message. Why hasn’t Oscar answered? She loves him, she’s furious, she can’t stand him ignoring her like this. She thinks about committing suicide, or at least breaking up everything around her, but it’s not that easy when you live with your father. So Ottessa goes out with her friends. 

Alcohol and anaesthetic sex are her way of avoiding suffering. At least, that’s what she tells herself, because clubbing often ends badly.’

‘A dark and carnal dive into the love life of a high school girl, Pussy Suicide describes the storm that is coming of age. Over the course of a weekend, anxieties and bodies are brutally intertwined in this first novel, which is already shaping up to be a cult hit’.
