** SOON TO BE A MAJOR HBO SERIES STARRING JODIE COMER **A YOU MAGAZINE BOOK OF THE YEARA startlingly funny sex comedy with dark undertones thats high on quirk and scabrous wit. Sunday Times, Books of the YearBy turns funny, eccentric and raunchy. GraziaMade me laugh and think too much (the right amount?) about sex and death and honesty. MONICA HEISEY Offbeat, unhinged and brilliant. StylistUtterly addictive. . .I laughed so hard it ached. GILLIAN ANDERSONJuicy, salacious and compelling. Trauma shouldnt be this fun. SARA PASCOEGreta liked knowing peoples secrets. That wasnt a problem.Until she met Big Swiss. Big Swiss. Thats Gretas nickname for her she is tall, and she is from Switzerland.Well thats how Greta imagines her; they havent actually met in person. Nor has Greta actually ever been to Switzerland. What Greta doesnt know is that shes about to bump into Big Swiss in the local dog park.A new and not entirely honest relationship is going to be born. A relationship that will transform both of their lives . .. Readers are obsessed with Big Swiss:Thing thing is a riot. Slightly deranged, endlessly entertaining, and weirdly touching. Kooky, funny, and very gripping. Beagin really understands the human condition. From the dark, dry comedy to the conversations surrounding sexuality, trauma and the complexities of our relationships to one another, this book had it ALL. I absolutely adored this! Bonkers but brilliant. I was hooked from the get go.Darkly funny, wildly eccentric and impossibly great. I loved this book all the way through, couldnt put it down. I devoured this book. Wonderful, witty, thought-provoking. Got me out of a reading slump and heartbroken its over.
