Why read it?
1 author picked Everything Will Swallow You as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I came to Tom Cox through his very entertaining presence on Bluesky, where his epic threads of ‘animals I have met’ are memorable both for the photos and the clever alt text. This novel has beautiful evocations of the Dorset coast, records you wish existed, people you wish you knew, connections that creep up on you, and the perfect amount of fantasy, all told in funny, irreverent and compelling prose. I read it from our library and then immediately bought it and another Cox title.
