On this episode we speak to Ella Frears about her incredible fictional memoir Good Lord. Taking the form of a single 30,000 word email it is a genre-defying, stream of consciousness address directed toward Ava, an unsuspecting estate agent.
Ella’s writing is both fearless and full of energy, ranging widely across the common spaces of our lives to take in the wild precarity of the housing market, endemic violence towards women in the UK today and much more. Good Lord is provocative, disconcerting and very, very funny. It poses searching questions about expectation, what we allow and what we all really know.
‘All the hot women I know have Ella Frears on their bedside tables’ Sheena Patel
‘A witty, indignant and poignant look at the way our desire for a place to call home has been misshapen and distorted by the morbid pathologies of the market.’ Keiran Goddard
Good Lord is published by Rough Trade
