Deborah Levy, the author of Hot Milk, uses her considerable imagination, her lush poetic language, and her dry wit to explore how a maternal bond, fear, confusion, and anxiety are putting her in danger of losing herself. If this sounds like a another pat self-help tale, it is anything but. The New York Times had it right: “it is a gorgeous new novel”—rich with characters, surprising, unique, and smart.
