In Offseason, our fiercely observant but self-deluded narrator finds herself teaching at an all-girls boarding school in a remote coastal town.

In between manic lectures that veer from Charles Dickenss Bleak House to the childhood maltreatment of her beloved Iosif Stalin and the generational legacy of the Holocaust, she implicates everyone she meets in her quest to pin down where exactly her own life went wrong.

Blisteringly funny and transcendently deranged, Offseason marks the arrival of a wild new literary talent.

Indescribably brilliant . . . Youve never read anything like it ELIZABETH McCRACKEN

A bonkers and beautifully written novel . . . Absorbing and original NUSSAIBAH YOUNIS

Yes, Offseason is hilarious, eccentric and gleefully mean-spirited, but just when you think you know what Sharp is doing, she will shatter your heart. I havent read something so incisive, so slyly tender in years LISA McINERNEY
