A London Writers Award-winner, her work has been published by Extra Teeth and Skin Deep and commissioned by Battersea Arts Centre and St Pauls Cathedral. An alumnus of Barbican Young Poets, she now creates digital art as part of Design Yourself a collective based at the Barbican Centre exploring what it means to be human, and is making an album to accompany her debut novel. Review Keeping the House is a truly beautiful debut. A mistress of deftly sketched characters that become whole humans in a few lines, Cin tells stories of working-class, inner-city life steeped in truth, emotion and vulnerability. She is one of a new generation of writers who see the splendour of these streets and articulate it with great majesty. Courttia Newland, Guardian Best Books of 2021 ---- Crackling with energy . . . An exhilaratingly idiosyncratic first novel, Keeping the House has "cult classic" written all over it. Michael Donkor, The Guardian ---- An enthralling read.Fanny Blake, Daily Mail ---- Cin has a gift for evocative writing. Michael Magras, Washington Post ---- Rich and complex . . . There is treachery in Cins Tottenham but solidarity too. Stewart Home, 3:AM Magazine ---- In her debut novel, Tice Cin weaves an extraordinary plot from the everyday lives in a community of Turkish Cypriots . . . Cin is capable of that gift that great storytellers have of bringing you into a world you may never inhabit, or even encounter, and make you feel that you are on first name terms with its whole population. John-Paul Davies, Buzz Magazine ---- [Keeping the House] expertly interweaves questions about family, community, trauma and belonging into episodes that are often humorous, sometimes heart-breaking but always poetic. Kerri Logan, The Skinny ---- This is a novel unapologetically specific to its depicted community, and, well, if youre not going to let the author lead you, why do you read at all? Lisa McInerney, Stinging Fly ---- An exciting new talent debuts with Keeping the House. This mercurial novel . . . has a raw energy and inconsistency . . . Cin makes a virtue of its unevenness, reflecting the patchwork, organic nature of a dynamic community. Alastair Mabott, Herald Scotland ---- Tice Cin is a fine stylist . . . Keeping the House breaks free from drug-novel stereotypes to paint a fresh, fun and vivid picture of drug-dealing in todays Tottenham. Laura Waddell, The Scotsman ---- Keeping the House is such a bold and yet poignant read: musical, nimble, affectionate and (thank GOD) rule-breaking. Lisa McInerney----Written with immediacy and poignancy, this is a powerful debut from an exciting and compelling new voice, I loved it. Salena Godden----Tice Cin has arrived. With a style all her own and a confidence that radiates off each page, poetry that renders settings and characters incredibly vivid. No impression will escape you. Derek Owusu----Keeping The House drew me in from the first few lines. A glorious novel which thrums with feeling, illustrating the London community with a sharp and confident eye. Her characters are full and sure, and traverse their world with humour, boldness and love. Hope fills these pages. Caleb Azumah Nelson, author of Open Water ----A brilliantly enthralling read. Tice Cins potent crime caper marks the arrival of an intoxicating new voice. Irenosen Okojie, author of Nudibranch----Bookseller quotes:----A bold and assured debut that rethinks what a crime novel can be. Ollie Simpson, Pages of Hackney-----Tice Cin fuses wild lyricism with dreamy romance in a form as voracious and alive as her characters. So Mayer, Burley Fisher Books ----A swirling collage of a novel that explores the dark side of a London community with great energy and warmth. Kate Ellis, Brick Lane Bookshop ----The Great Tottenham Novel exists and its called Keeping the House. I loved it. Gary Perry, Foyles ----Cins natural poetry and the unique rhythm of her storytelling weave a spellbinding narrative through several generations of Turkish Cypriot family. A captivating read from a powerful new voice!

With a style all her own and a confidence that radiates off each page, poetry that renders settings and characters incredibly vivid. No impression will escape you." --Derek Owusu "Lyrical, memorable, pulsing with life, energy and sensation. I so admired its polyphonic ambitions and evocation of place--not to mention love. Her writing sticks in the mind like a thumbprint on glass." --Olivia Sudjic "Thrums with feeling, illustrating the London community with a sharp and confident eye. Her characters are full and sure, and traverse their world with humor, boldness and love. Hope fills these pages." --Caleb Azumah Nelson "A brilliantly enthralling read. Tice Cins potent crime caper marks the arrival of an intoxicating new voice." --Irenosen Okojie "A beautiful novel--forgiving, meandering and sexy. Tice Cin makes prose ooze and breathe and cook. Her multilingual Tottenham Turkish-Cypriot characters are real people to me now. I love Damla, Cemile and Ayla very much." --Yara Rodrigues Fowler "Tice Cin is an enthralling voice." --Roger Robinson "Tice Cins voice is so compelling and utterly original, and her book is a thing of beauty and craft, both soft and sharp. It envelops you then gives you a gut punch. An essentially London novel." --Cecilia Knapp "Theres always been a poetic, dream-like wonder to Tices writing. No detail goes unnoticed, unexamined. You see all the tiniest details through her eyes and her words--its a beautiful gift." --Michelle Tiwo "An intoxicating rush of language--and languages--funny, grimy (in all senses), and driven by a fierce energy, Keeping The House holds a deep sadness at its core, but never allows it to overwhelm us, instead finding beauty in balance." --Will Ashon " Keeping the House is a thrilling debut by a bold new talent: sparkling, polyphonic, and bristling with linguistic energy. Tice Cin has somehow fused experimental writing, crime fiction and the family saga together, while coolly inaugurating the London Turkish novel." --Matthew Sperling "A deft and dynamic debut flushed with unforgettable characters alongside an intimate sense of community. Tice Cin charts the complexities of inner-city and diasporic life, morality and relationships through a gripping network of twists and turns in a wholly unique way. I thought I knew what North London was about, I realised after reading this I didnt." --Anthony Anaxagorou Bookseller quotes: "A bold and assured debut that rethinks what a crime novel can be." --Ollie Simpson, Pages of Hackney "Tice Cin fuses wild lyricism with dreamy romance in a form as voracious and alive as her characters." --So Mayer, Burley Fisher Books "A swirling collage of a novel that explores the dark side of a London community with great energy and warmth." --Kate Ellis, Brick Lane Bookshop "The Great Tottenham Novel exists and its called Keeping the House .
