'So weird and wonderful I am already adding it to my recommendations at the end of this year' Lucy Mangan, Guardian 'Elegant and viciously funny. Think Jane Eyre meets Patrick Bateman. Sensationally unhinged.' Sunday Times 'Simmering with rage, propulsive and laugh-out-loud funny, this novel is nothing less than a masterpiece' Catriona Ward, author of The Last House on Needless Street 'The literary lovechild of Jane Eyre and American Psycho. Murderous literary fun.' The Times 'I am OBSESSED. A gleeful, gory pastiche shot through with pitch-black humour.' Kirsty Logan 'Virginia Feito turns Victorian tropes upside down in this gloriously grotesque period horror' Independent 'Brutal, bold, and brilliantly macabre.


A decadent delight for all lovers of the darkest Victorian gothic.' Essie Fox 'Riotous, devilishly clever, and deliciously appalling, Victorian Psycho is flat out brilliant. Long live Winifred! She is the anti-hero this, or any other, century deserves' Paul Tremblay 'Relentlessly moody in the best possible way, Victorian Psycho asks how anyone could live sanely in a time so systemically cruel. Atmospheric, funny, bloody as hell, I finished it in one sitting' Ainslie Hogarth 'Night-black and altogether delicious fun.' Paraic O'Donnell 'A wicked delight and a hilariously twisted tale, underlining the cruelty of Victorian society with a humourous deftness that is to be admired' Emma Hinds Praise for Mrs March: 'A brilliantly tense psychological study from a writer who keeps pace with Du Maurier' Guardian 'Virginia Feito's noirish debut novel left me rapt. An elegant, claustrophobic psychological thriller that feels incredibly original' Evening Standard 'There are shades of Hitchcock and Highsmith here, while the opening chapter puts one in mind of Woolf's Mrs Dalloway. Nastily good fun' Metro 'I read Mrs. March in one sitting and was so captured by it.


As a character, she is fascinating, complex, and deeply human' Elisabeth Moss.
