Review
‘A very accomplished book indeed, brimming with quality and admirably lacking in tricks or literary artifice...a crisply written story with a nice undertow of irony...there is fine writing on every page. The dialogue is inch-perfect and there are some beautifully mournful descriptive passages.’ Sunday Telegraph
