‘A short, sharp poetic burst of a novel, where the prickly heat of youthful love and lust itches just beneath the surface of the page’ ANDREW MCMILLAN
'Like the gay, disaffected great-grandson of Virginia Woolf’s The Waves, Tomek Mossakowski’s Jonny cuts right to the heart with his dazzling prose and turbulent characters. Jonny brilliantly blurs the line between fantasy and nightmare on the matter of sexual desire, and we feel every urge and deflection. I can’t think of a more astute portrait of infatuation in recent literature' CHRISTOPHER BOLLEN
'Propulsive and emotional, Tomek Massakowski’s debut burns with sun and seduction. His sentences, chiseled and poem-like, raise the usual betrayals of love and heartbreak to an epic beauty' RICHIE HOFFMAN
'I devoured Jonny in one sitting, intoxicated by the narrator’s obsession. This fever-dream of a novel effortlessly drudged up so many feelings I thought I’d put behind me, and that’s just the kind of reckoning I want from a novel. I found myself confronted by my own desire as I sped through the book, hoping for an ending that would make this kind of love seem worth it. I won’t spoil the ending here, but Mossakowski achieves something with his final pages that very few debut novelists can: a reclamation and a haunting at once' GARRARD CONLEY
'Sweaty, sun-soaked and stylistically assured, the poetry of the prose in JONNY is simply divine. A fearless, accomplished debut that moves with real confidence. Big fan' ASHLEY HICKSON-LOVENCE
'A feverish tale of sex, escape and self-erasure. Sun, sea, sweat and longing suffuse every page, while Mossakowski’s sensual poetry captures the strange, intoxicating way desire can make us idealise another person even as we lose sight of ourselves. Sharp, carnal and deeply evocative, it's a story about what happens when wanting someone means wanting to disappear into them' SETH INSUA, author of Human, Animal and Man and Wife
