Max Porter
Quiet on set, please.
Enter Lynette: Actor, writer, director, showrunner, and star of her final movie in her head—is it a comedy, a tragedy, a farce, or . . . just life?
Her more recent roles include: The ex-wife (he left for a younger woman); sixty-something daughter to dead parents; sister to dead siblings (they haunt her sometimes); mother to a long-suffering daughter; furious owner of the world’s best-behaved dog. Oh, and a force of nature.
Here’s what else you need to know about Lynette:
It’s her birthday, and she’s waking up in a hotel room, hungover, in a dreary English seaside town. Outside are gray skies, crazy golf, a row of border defense huts.
She hasn’t worked in a while (she hasn’t been very well). But maybe you recognize her from that television drama that ran and ran? People often do.
Rising this morning, she has one thing on her mind: to meet and slay the ghosts of the past and the ills of today. And, knowing Lynette, she won’t go gentle into that good night.

Praise for Burn and Rave:
"Brilliant and sad and audacious and bonkers. I loved it." —Maggie O'Farrell, New York Times bestselling author of Hamnet and Land
“Endlessly inventive. . . bracing, funny, heart-touching. No one writes like Max Porter and it’s a thrill to watch him play with form, and to break the bounds of literature again and again.” —Douglas Stuart, Booker Prize winning author of Shuggie Bain
“Burn and Rave swerves around the bends of the human heart, and then miraculously delivers you home. It left me inspired, consoled, and thankful.” —Samantha Harvey, Booker Prize winning author of Orbital
Praise for Max Porter:
“Max Porter is one of my favorite writers in the world. Why? Because he’s always asking the most important questions and then finding ways—through innovative structures and that inimitable voice—of answering those questions soulfully, with his full attention.” —Booker Prize winner George Saunders
“There are few writers who can explore the psyche—and also the limits of language to describe it—with the lyricism and economy of Max Porter.” —Esquire
“What an absolute treasure Max Porter is . . . Give yourself up to Porter’s storytelling and love of language. You will be in good hands.” —The Times
“Max Porter writes like no one else, and it is impossible not to be swept along and astounded.” —Booker Prize finalist Daisy Johnson
“Porter does more in fewer pages than virtually any Anglophone author.” —The Rumpus
“One of our most exciting writers. He dares to experiment and that means both the flare of mercury and the burnt crucible.” —The Spectator
“Max Porter’s books are always as much poetry as they are prose; they are tiny works of art that never fail to move and engage.” —LitHub
“A master craftsman and artist.” —New York Journal of Books
“Max Porter has a way of writing unlike anyone else.” —PJ Harvey
“Style and soul are what matter here; Porter’s is utterly unique.” —New York Magazine
