Synopsis

'I tore through the pages. A book I'll read over and over again' CANDICE CARTY-WILLIAMS

'Illuminating' OBSERVER

We've all had our share of mould, dodgy landlords and awkward house shares. But Kieran Yates has had more than most: by the age of twenty-five she'd lived in twenty different houses across the country.

In her coming-of-age memoir, she charts the heartbreaks and joys of a life spent searching for home. Sparkling with warmth and wit, this is a story of finding beauty in our interiors, friendships in cramped flats, and home even in the most fragile circumstances. All the Houses I’ve Ever Lived In is at once a rallying cry for change and a love letter to home in all its forms.

'A beautiful exposition of home. Stunning' BOLU BABALOLA

‘So incisive it’s hard to put down’ PANDORA SYKES 

‘Yates manages the unthinkable: she makes the housing crisis funny’i
