John Dexter has problems. Real problems. We’re talking episodes in psychiatric hospitals, and then some. Woe betide any woman he falls in love with. But he’s no mad stalker. He knows himself, understand his own motives and behavioural patterns all too well. The problem is, he can’t stop himself. Then he meets Carla. Twenty-two years his junior, with family problems of her own.CARLA is a novel of … own.
CARLA is a novel of obsession, love and loss, exploring very real mental health problems. It centres around an average flat and an average pub in an average English town, but its originality, realism and edgy humour has earned it a certain ‘cult’ status in some internet circles.
Here’s what people are saying about Carla:
“I started to read this book at five o’clock this afternoon, and have just finished it. I haven’t done that in ages. What a brilliant piece of work.”
“If I say that I read this in less than a day and I didn’t want it to end you get the picture.”
“A lovely but dark tale of love with hints of Wuthering Heights. Deep, passionate, beautifully penned. A definite must read!”
“Highly recommended if you like a dark, psychological read.”
