As winner of the highly prestigious IMPAC International Dublin Literary Award, Wide Open beat out books by such masters as Toni Morrison, Philip Roth, and Michael Cunningham. It is truly extraordinary work of fiction, taking readers into a small English seaside town, and into the minds and hearts of its remarkable inhabitants --  a man named Ronny, weed killer by trade, who has some strange things in common with a man he finds dangling from a bridge; Nathan, the son of a pedophile, who toils in the Underground's Lost Property department, endlessly logging missing items; Sara, purveyor of her family boar farm, and Lily, her teenage daughter, tragically born with unformed organs and blood that refuses to clot.  Starkly original and at turns hilarious, sad, and hopeful, Wide Open brilliantly displays Nicola Barker's delightfully singular literary talent.</p>

一個驚世駭俗的小說家。時而怪異時而噁心，內核卻暗湧著人性真實底下的瘋顛猥褻以及絕望，令人不寒而慄，荒人們都無法不直面如此疏離破碎的扭曲世界。在沒有光的地方，異鄉人在死亡尋找一片寂靜。我們只好ＷＩＤＥ　ＯＰＥＮ的，等待救贖。
