'An extraordinary novel. Part adventure story, part the life of a saint, part parable, it is an exemplary act of imagination in which Brian Moore has brought vividly to life a radically different world and populated it with men and women wholly unlike us ... We put Mr. Moore's novel down and look at ourselves and our places differently' New York Times.
'A dark, turbulent dream of a book' Time Out.
'A remarkable book' Anita Brookner.
'Compulsive reading' Sunday Telegraph.
Brian Moore is the author of nineteen novels, including The Statement, No Other Life, Lies Of Silence and The Lonely Passion Of Judith Hearne. Mr. Moore was short-listed three times for Britain's Booker Prize. He passed away in 1999.
