Winner of the Not the Booker Prize 2020

Hello Friend We Missed You is a deeply poignant and bleakly comic debut novel about loneliness, the ‘violent revenge thriller’ category on Netflix, solipsism, rural gentrification, Jack Black, and learning to exist in the least excruciating way possible. Its story of depression and death on the small Welsh island of Mon, of people armed with every social media completely failing to communicate, is far, far funnier than it has any right to be. It’s also, ultimately, extremely moving. An incredible debut novel from a truly unique prose stylist.
