A success all over Europe, Deniz Goran's first novel strikes a highly individual literary tone.

"Risque but worth it...exposes the amoral world of the wealthy." Daily Mail

"A lively gauntlet...the ideas it suggests are quite revolutionary." Sunday Times

"A very funny book...full of humour and adventure." The Independent

Burning House introduces a fresh, new voice: Deniz Goran. Her hypnotic novel about a heroine's progress through Eurotrash culture is both outspoken and compelling. At times funny, sexy and poignant, this very modern novel creates an absorbingly amoral world, where the rich glide off one another in an empty pursuit of sensation. Set in London, the Mediterranean, Turkey and Pakistan, Goran's world challenges our perceptions of the status quo: what is that people, rich or poor, really want?

Deniz Goran is a Turkish writer living and working in London.
