Book Synopsis
"It's extraordinary. Painful, powerful, visceral and spiritual. A remarkable book.' - Marian Keyes Nora Ephron meets Bram Stoker in Sophie White's vivid and ambitious literary non-fiction collection. White asks uncomfortable questions about the lived reality of womanhood in the 21st century, and the fear that must be internalised in order to find your path through it. White balances vivid storytelling with sharp-witted observations about the horrors of grief, mental illness, and the casual and sometimes hilarious cruelty of life.

Trade Review
'It feels strange to describe a book that discusses suicide, self-harm and alcoholism as fun, but Corpsing is a joyride through misery.' - The Times 'We can only hope for more like this from her.' - RTE 'So perceptive and rounded are these pieces that I come away feeling I know a great deal about White but also, a great deal more about the topics she writes on. And that, in a world that needs understanding, is something vital.' - Independent
