Review:
'This is polemic touched with poetry. Benson's gift is to capturein strong visual terms the earth-based intuition of those "dropped in the sand and tuned to the rhythms of tiny island life' --The Sunday Times
'The lack of adornment lends the novel the directness of a folk-tale and sharpens its sting' --The Independent
'A powerful political novel which makes its case all the more forcefully for being so restrained' --The Guardian
