A Piece of the Night is Michèle Roberts' first published novel, released in 1978. The novel is semi-autobiographical.[1] It was described by Valentine Cunningham in New Statesman as "a runaway chaos of inchoate bits", and Blake Morrison wrote in The Times Literary Supplement that much of A Piece of the Night "gives the same impression of a book written under the stern eye of a women's workshop group".[2] The novel won the Gay News Book Award 1979.[1]
