{{newreview|author=Sara Stewart|title=Whilst I Was Out|rating=2.5|genre=General Fiction |summary= Sara Stewart's debut novel, ''Whilst I Was Out'', opens with all the promise of a book intent to delve head-first into invention and oddness. The narrator of the story, Alice, is stuck in traffic with her husband – who she refers to throughout the book as My Dear Husband (or MDH for short) – when he suddenly jumps out of their car and runs off for seemingly no reason. The scene opens with a mention of domestic abuse but seems much more interested in the inherent malfunction of Alice's husband as she describes his fixation with his bicycle and how her and their three children have taken a back seat to his 'finding himself' through affairs and cross-country cycling.|amazonuk=<amazonuk>1910903035</amazonuk>}}
