Bloomsbury presents Leave Before You Go by Emily Perkins, read by Takunda Muzondiwa

London has ground Daniel down. Grasping for an escape from the urban drudgery of his life, he is enticed by a free trip and the promise of ten thousand dollars, all for the simple delivery of a package for an acquaintance.

Finding himself quickly ensnared in the murky netherworld of drug smuggling, Daniel’s life descends into a montage of casinos and grungy hotels, stuck in New Zealand when he wins and loses a fortune in one night. Grit and tenacity will be his only redemption in this illicit pressure-cooker of a world. Equally dissatisfied with her life, Kate, an usherette in Auckland, pines for an ex-boyfriend and yearns for genuine fulfilment. Their lives will become indelibly entwined.

Sharp and poignant, Emily Perkins’ debut novel examines a disenfranchised generation in search of purpose.©2024 Ken Bruen (P)2025 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Kritikerstimmen

A swift, cinematic study of generational malaise...told with major zest and humour
The funniest, sharpest depiction of postmodern twentysomething life I’ve read … Perkin’s prose is vitreous and concise
Amid the noisy chorus of twentysomething novels, Emily Perkins's distinctive voice . . . stands out for its lightness and authenticity
