Brilliantly spiky ... As well as boasting compelling, sharp prose, Name forces readers to question what one's name means - and to who' AnOther Magazine, Best Books of 2025'Debr?'s voice is Camusian, comic, stark, relentless and totally hypnotic' Rachel Kushner'Written with edge and urgency in a voice that is both vulnerable and in full command' Colm T?ib?n'Annie Ernaux, just edgier. Her prose is gorgeously spare and practical' Irish IndependentName is Debr?'s most intense novel yet, a fresh feat of sharp, spare, yet explosive prose. Set partly in the narrator's childhood, it explores ideas about origins and reshapes relationships to our various inheritances: name, family, class, habits. As the novel unravels, freedom is revealed as a redefining of these relationships on one's own terms. Brilliant and unflinching, Name affirms and extends Debr?'s radical project.
