Publisher's Summary
Sheila Heti collected half a million words from a decade’s worth of journals, put them in a spreadsheet, and sorted them alphabetically. She spent the next ten years cutting and refining, and was left with 60,000 words of brilliance and mayhem, joy and sorrow. These are her alphabetical diaries.
Critic Reviews
‘Sheila Heti keeps transforming my idea of writing. Her Alphabetical Diaries isn’t just dirty and funny and poignant; it reproposes everything you thought about a self and the way time passes.’ — Adam Thirlwell, author of The Future Future
‘A book that is in many ways is an ode to the sentence; from the muscle of single line to the power that comes with accrual. An immersive and hugely entertaining read.' — Sinéad Gleeson author of Constellations
‘Though the formal challenges vary, Heti is always pressing at the membrane between life and art, beauty and ugliness.’ — Parul Sehgal, New Yorker
