Resumen del Editor

A Guardian literary highlight for 2015
A Huffington Post 'One to Watch' in 2015
An Amazon Rising Star 2015

"Astounding" (Lena Dunham, creator of Girls and author of Not That Kind of Girl)

"The First Bad Man brings together all of July's talents - it's a book that must be read, a book that must be purchased - in duplicate - one for you, one for a friend. Don't think you can loan this book - you'll never get it back" (A. M. Homes, author of This Book Will Save Your Life and May We Be Forgiven)

The first novel by the filmmaker, artist and bestselling author Miranda July confirms her as a spectacularly original, iconic, and important voice today, and a writer for all time. The First Bad Man is dazzling and unforgettable.

Messy, problematic and strained

The story’s treatment of a protagonist who clearly reads as neurodivergent is really jarring and not fun to read, especially as cheryl’s “quirks” are often played for cruel laughs. The book does a bad job of portraying consent, and July’s treatment of Clee is not praxis: it veers on Humbert Humbert and Lolita territory but doesn’t adding anything interesting. Basically there’s almost no character development, and it reads as a ton of dislocated one liners stitched together.

On the other hand, I’d have loved this book if I read it as a teenager. Some of its jokes are funny and there are some interesting thoughts and uses of language.
