About this listen

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF ADULTS AND ANIMALS

'Her best yet – funny, gritty, delightfully feral and, as ever, painfully truthful' DOLLY ALDERTON

'An amazing writer’ MARGOT ROBBIE

Slag. Noun. A promiscuous woman, of cheap or questionable character. Mostly derogatory. Sometimes affectionate.

Once a slag, always a slag?

Sarah is 15, obsessed with boys and sex and getting drunk on Malibu. Most seriously of all, she’s obsessed with her teacher Mr Keaveney.

Sarah is 41, the last of the party girls. But even for her, the mad nights out are losing their shine, and there’s hardly anyone worth sleeping with anymore.

Instead, Sarah and her sister Juliette are going on a whisky-fuelled campervan trip across Scotland to celebrate Juliette’s birthday.

They haven’t always got along, but they both know how the deep, dark, mortifying secrets of your teenage years can haunt you forever.

And it’s time to dig up some demons.

From the acclaimed author of Animals and Adults, Slags is a no-holds-barred, frank and heartfelt exploration of sisterhood, friendship and teenage obsession.

Adults was the UK’s #6 bestselling hardback, The Sunday Times chart 9th February 2020 / Margot Robbie talking about Animals, as quoted in CHANEL’s short film segment, ‘In the library with Margot Robbie’

Critic reviews

'Her best yet – funny, gritty, delightfully feral and, as ever, painfully truthful' Dolly Alderton

'The strongest prose stylist of our age. Slags is so brilliant, warm and funny. Women are going to be extraordinarily grateful for her putting to the page the difficult stuff and making it funny. That's her magic trick. Slags is the most distressing funny novel I’ve ever read, like I May Destroy You was the most distressing funny show I've seen. It's a huge compliment because it takes such courage and clarity of vision – and there’s no other author in England who warrants it as Unsworth does' Emma Forrest
