Anahita Rosalind Ghorban-Galaszczuk (yes, that really is her name but you can call her Ana) is discovering that life is absurd. As if dying of cancer at the age of 12.5 isn't bad enough, she still has to endure daily insults from her nemesis, Alyssa (Queen Mean) Anderson.

Ana's on a wild roller-coaster of life and death, kindness and cruelty, ordinary and extraordinary.

And she's got a few things to do before she exits . . .

Praise for Exit Through the Gift Shop

'Maryam is a brilliantly funny writer for kids. I have asked her to adapt my own books for the stage and she did a magnificent job every time. This original story of hers is an absolute joy.' - David Walliams

Superb!

An outstanding debut young adult fiction novel. The author tackles the difficult subject of death with humour and purpose and gives us an authentic and totally relatable almost teenage protagonist. Masterful writing and a refreshingly genuine voice.
