Miranda July wrote, directed, and starred in her first feature-length film, Me and You and Everyone We Know, which won a special jury prize at the Sundance Film Festival and the Camera d’Or at Cannes, among other prizes. In No one belongs here more than you, Miranda turns her extraordinary talents to the short story. She demonstrates that she has an equally original voice in short-story writing as she does in film and performance art. In her enchanting debut, she reveals the idiosyncrasies, vulnerability, longing and odd logic that govern all of our lives.
“Incredibly charming, beautifully written, frequently laugh-out-loud funny. There has been no more enjoyable and promising a debut collection in many a moon.”
David Eggers
M. J. Hyland’s Carry Me Down was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize in 2006.
No one belongs here more than you is published by Canongate Books on 14 June 2007.
