Author Emma Jane Unsworth (Animals, Adults) talks up her hotly-anticipated third novel Slags, a frank and feral evocation of friendship, sisterly bonds and teenage dreams, in conversation with fellow writer Hannah Begbie.Slag. Noun. Mostly derogatory. Sometimes affectionate. Once a slag, always a slag? At the heart of Emma Jane Unsworth's latest novel is main character Sarah. Aged 15, she's fixated on alcopops, sex and her teacher Mr Keaveney. At 41, she's the last party girl standing... but mad nights out have lost their shine. On a boozy campervan trip across Scotland with her sister Juliette, she is forced to confront certain deep, dark, mortifying demons from her past.
