I wrote the novel from six viewpoints. Some people have subsequently told me that this is not ‘fashionable’, but fortunately for me I didn’t know that then. Each character’s perspective contributes to the whole because of their distinct plot lines and their idiosyncratic opinions, and that’s why I chose six points of view. [...] My agent chose one publisher, and she read the manuscript over the weekend and was ready to offer informally by the start of the week.
