Marvellous

She has won every argument she has ever entered. This is the one she cannot win. Marvellous Okafor is brilliant, fearless, and allergic to easy answers. She's been, in her mid-twenties, sitting in a therapist's office every Tuesday for eleven consecutive months — and has yet to say the one true thing that would explain why she is there. She has built a brilliant life out of arguing her way past everything that should have stopped her. But there is one thing she has never been able to argue her way out of, and four and half years later, it is still waiting for her to come back and finish it. Compulsively readable and emotionally fearless, Marvellous is a novel about the cost of keeping your own secrets — and what it takes to finally stop.
