'[A] masterly first work of non-fiction? which examines the phenomenon of anxiety with rigour and compassion. ' (Evening Standard, Best Books 2018)

'Exposure feels both necessary and timely: a blistering, thoughtful examination of the anxieties around writing. Sudjic shares her own experiences and those of writers like Maggie Nelson and Chris Kraus to dismantle the assumptions often made about the authorial 'I', particularly for women. A superb, engaging piece of work.' (Sinead Gleeson, RTE Radio 1)

'Unflinchingly honest and insightful on the challenges of anxiety.' (Sophie Mackintosh, Man Booker-longlisted author of THE WATER CURE)

'Beautifully articulated, incisive, necessary and downright brilliant.' (Sharlene Teo, author of PONTI)

'A powerful defence of fundamental, increasingly eroded rights: our right to be only partially known or wholly unseen; our right to draw on the energy of our fears to make art. In this post-truth moment, our fraught and all-too-frequently gendered (mis)understanding of fiction's purpose is rapidly approaching crisis point. Sudjic's Exposure feels like it arrives just in time.' (Sam Byers, author of PERFIDIOUS ALBION)

'Simply magnificent. It fizzes through your brain like a stringent tonic with an essayist's style that entangles deep erudition with personal reflection.' --(Matthew d'Ancona, Editor-in-Chief of DRUGSTORE CULTURE)
