Alan Bissett's return to prose is better than your favourite band's comeback tour, it's a supergroup where all the frontrunners gang together, fuse and flux — plenty thrash, both gristle and glitter, aw the tassels. Life's great game-show in one sleek sitting— you're in the passenger seat and Alan's yer cosmic cabbie; you're on a jet-stream and Susie Q is queen of the flume ride.
One of Scotland's boldest voices reminds us of what we've been missing. Rarely is a book so worthy of starting all over again as soon as finished."
-Micheal Pederson

"Lazy Susan is a marvellous example of Bissett's laudable talent in creating witty, human, flawed, and yet thoroughly empathetic characters, whose plights and journeys you are invested in from the first page. Susie's varied adventures, all of which are worth taking, hit home the impact of the choices we make, as well as those ultimate factors that are outwith our control, no matter what we do. I adored this novella, and find myself wanting to meet Susie again. You will too."
-Jenny Lindsay

"Lazy Susan is one hell of a smart novella, crackling with energy from start to finish. Susan’s character is created so vividly that she may as well be sat beside you, sharing her escapades over a glass of white wine. Alan Bissett’s storytelling is fast-paced and hilarious, peppered with moments of crippling poignancy. What an addictive read."
- Imogen Stirling

"Lazy Susan is Bissett at his best - warm, mischievous and funny as fuck. Spending an evening in the company of Susan is a riotous pleasure. The masterful structure gives you real agency over the course of her rowdy journey - from hotel rooms to fringe shows to a hilarious comedy debut - I chose the destinations but it was Susan that took me for a ride. The perfectly observed speech patterns and dialogue brings to life a character who revels in her own authenticity. Bold, witty and sometimes hilariously unaware; Susan is the sort of one-woman party you'd kill for a night out within the real world."
