“The 22 year old Australian narrator of K Patrick’s sensuous, subversive debut novel is a long way from home. A matron at an unnamed boarding school in the remote English countryside, they regularly encounter the headmaster’s beautiful, self-assured wife.

K Patrick has said of Mrs. S that ‘I just had this impulse to write a horny lesbian novel.’ They have absolutely succeeded at that aim—the granular, finely-worked detailing of longing, fantasising and consummation is wonderfully lascivious.”
