About the event

I Want to Go Home But I'm Already There

by Róisín Lanigan


'Absorbing and eerie ... Full of wry observations about the status markers of modern life ... A hugely enjoyable portrait of the horrors of renting' - Sunday Times

'A brilliant satire of London's horrific housing market ... It got under my skin in a way that made me shiver' - Guardian

'A document of hellish times and a map of our relationships with others, ourselves, and our demons – metaphorical and literal' - New Statesman

'One of the best things I've read on the psychological horrors of private renting, and what damp, overpriced flats can do to our emotional lives. Hilarious, horrifying, truly original. I loved it' - Oisín McKenna, author of Evenings and Weekends
