Getting Hurt

by Andrew Davies

In his own words, Charlie Cross is a bloke in love. A hard-drinking, chain-smoking lawyer, he is well-off, divorced and heading for trouble. When he meets Viola in an after-hours drinking club, he knows instinctively that they could do each other harm. What follows is one man's record of a love affair, an erotic, savagely funny and heartfelt tale of destructive sexual passion.

Reviews

[Adrian White · Rating 5 out of 5]

Along with favourite other Andrew Davies book, B Monkey, this is exactly the type of book I hope to emulate in my writing. Easy, accessible style but hard, hard subject matter. What it feels like for a boy, as Madonna might sing!

[Alex Ankarr · Rating 4 out of 5]

Terrific book, quite brutal though.

Amazing.
