_____________________________________________________________________________
A bitingly honest, darkly funny debut about love, sex, power and desire, by a major new British talent
Anna is struggling to afford life in London as she trains to be a singer. During the day, she vies to succeed against her course mates with their discreet but inexhaustible streams of cultural capital and money, and in the evening she sings jazz at a bar in the City to make ends meet.
It’s there that she meets Max, a financier fourteen years older than her. Over the course of one winter, Anna’s intoxication oscillates between her hard-won moments on stage, where she can zip herself into the skin of her characters, and nights spent with Max in his glass-walled flat overlooking the city.
But Anna’s fledgling career demands her undivided attention, and increasingly – whether he necessarily wills it or not – so does Max…

批評家のレビュー
Tender, devastating, witty. And deeply true. Sweetbitter meets Normal People (MEG MASON)
This promising debut charts the edgy relationship of a young woman and older man... Crimp’s prose is elegant and witty... a precursor to great things from an interesting new voice in fiction
This is a haunting, bleakly compelling debut. .. Jean Rhys’s aching Voyage in the Dark is a source for this unflinching study of male-female power dynamics. Things should have moved on more since Rhys’s 1934 novel, yet Anna’s shabby London circumstances and relationship feel grimly plausible. A deftly structured commercial literary debut by a writer of promise
Imogen Crimp's enjoyable debut novel ... is an all-too-real reminder of what it is to be a woman in your 20s, searching for who you are, trying on identities or stuck in a complicated pseudo-relationship even when you know you shouldn’t be. It’s a book about assessing your worth through other people’s eyes - parents, friends, a lover - and about being observed: by an overprotective mother, by men on the tube, by those who assess her auditions, by classmates competing for her slot, and ultimately by the audience
Wonderful ... A beautifully written examination of the psychology of sex, power, ambition and love and it’s particularly brilliant on being insecure about who you are
An absorbing debut about sex and power ... This gripping debut about an opera singer’s relationship with an older man explores issues of financial and sexual inequality
In A Very Nice Girl, Imogen Crimp explores complicated relationships, the creative life, and the challenges of living in London in your twenties, with precision and subtlety. Touching on feminism, power, finances, and the pleasures and dangers of a new relationship, this book is an assured debut (CLAIRE FULLER)
Fans of Fleabag will find lots to like here in this tale of a young woman who needs to get the hell out of her own way
British newcomer Imogen Crimp delivers a witty tale of finance and romance
Meg Mason called it "tender, devastating and witty. And deeply true... Sweetbitter meets Normal People"
Crimp's debut novel will perhaps earn the author comparisons to Sally Rooney, but A Very Nice Girl feels truly distinct ... An alluring romance
Brilliant
Imogen Crimp’s A Very Nice Girl is one of the buzziest debut novels this spring
Imogen Crimp captures the glittering thrill of being young and choosing your own life with a dark, unflinching undercurrent of desire, power and control (JESSICA ANDREWS)
A blazing, darkly funny debut that captures a young woman’s search to find herself both through love and performing opera - and the way one fights to cancel out the other. It has an honesty and tenderness that will stay with me for a long time (RACHEL JOYCE)
