The Beat of the Pendulum

`For those who love books, Catherine Chidgey is a find' Ali Smith, `A wonderful new talent' Nick Hornby, `Like the whole of Knausgaard's My Struggle in one entrancing volume' Simon Edge

The Beat of the Pendulum is a `found novel', the result of one year in which Catherine Chidgey drew upon the language she encountered on a daily basis, such as news stories, radio broadcasts, emails, social media, street signs, TV, and many conversations.
