'Baxter has somehow managed to create a work that is both lavishly excessive and tightly restrained. Woo Woo is a surreal fever dream but also an astute domestic portrait. It's genuinely terrifying and laugh-out-loud funny. I've never read anything quite like it.'
Anna Snoekstra, author of Out of Breath

'Ella Baxter has created a frightening, brilliant and utterly invigorating novel, something that radiates, darkly, on your bedside table. Her sentences gleam like a knife held at night. Woo Woo captures the psychology of making art in the present, to be cut up and devoured online, flayed between discourse and obscene acts live-streamed.'
Paul Dalla Rosa, author of An Exciting and Vivid Inner Life

'Ella Baxter's second novel is brilliant and profane, pretty much guaranteed to provoke the provokable and delight people who like weird feelings and private thoughts. It's a wildly entertaining book, surprising on every page, and it dares you to wonder what the difference is, in life, between the dark bits and the fun bits.'
Ronnie Scott, author of Shirley

'Woo Woo is sharp and heady, the kind of writing that makes you feel slightly drunk and bewitched. Its exploration of creativity as a gothic haunting, as an indignity to be endured, is delicious, delightfully revolting and unlike anything you've read before.'
Sinéad Stubbins, author of In My Defence, I Have No Defence

'A primal scream of selfhood into the toilet bowl of the art world. Feral, guttural.'
Will Cox, author of Hyacinth

'Sharp, clever, and wickedly funny, Baxter's Woo Woo is an unsettling delight.'
Monica Dux, author of Lapsed

'Equal parts freakshow and feast, artistic haunting and portrait of the artist as huntress—not to mention, funny as fuck. Ella Baxter's prose is a force of nature.'
Laura Elizabeth Woollett, author of West Girls

'I wish I could have written this book. I don't know how to do it justice. Woo Woo and its glorious, propulsive, feral protagonist mark a new frontier in fiction, where everything beautiful is laid out like a picnic, and we stomp on it. This book is hungry and hilarious, with prose so exquisite it makes me scream. I am in awe of Ella Baxter and her spectacular brain.'
Laura McPhee-Browne, author of Little Plum
