'A distinctive and wonderful book, which lingers and deepens in your mind' Hilary Mantel
'Steeped in dust, sweat, tension and desire, “All the Living” feels like a classic - the finest first novel I've read in years' Tash Aw
‘This striking novel is rich in future promise.’ Sunday Times
‘[A] lyrical tale of grief and gruelling love on a tobacco farm ... [Morgan’s] pacing is shrewd. By the time the harvest is done, two lonely people are fused, if not consoled.’ New Yorker
‘As I read the opening pages of “All the Living” I was suddenly no longer in my study but gazing out at the leafy tobacco plants of a small Kentucky farm where a young couple are struggling to make their living, and their lives. In seemingly effortless prose, C.E. Morgan captures both the complexity and the simplicity of Orren’s relentlessly hard work and Aloma’s dangerous drift towards another man. A wonderful debut.’ Margot Livesey
‘[An] elegant debut novel...reminiscent of Flannery O’Connor and Carson McCullers. Morgan dutifully shows how ambivalence, duty and deceit might play out in a claustrophobic agrarian world.’ TLS
‘A perceptive portrayal of love and the burden of loss in the American South.’ Waterstone’s Books Quarterly
‘Sweetly haunting.’ The List
