"Smart, subtle, stylish, and witty."-"The Boston Herald Sunday" "A novel so much more than just clever and sharp that it might be said to be wise . . . Cusk has heart and depth in abundance, and "Saving Agnes" showcases both."-Abby Frucht, "The Village Voice" "Quirky but appealing characters and wry social commentary. . . Exquisite and sometimes diabolical."-Publishers Weekly
Winner of the Whitbread First Novel Award, this is 'a splendid novel' Guardian
