Review:
"With the appearance of the seventh novel, Bonds of Attachment, later this year, it will be possible to see the septet [Land of the Living] as one of the finest achievements of Welsh writing in English . . . Already it is clear that Emyr Humphreys is our greatest living novelist." -Western Mail
"Emyr Humphreys''s long and prolific writing career must now warrant him the title of Wales''s number one novelist and place him amongst the greatest of those who have ever attempted to interpret life in Wales through prose . . . Bonds of Attachment is a rewarding read . . . the Land of the Living series, when read in its entirety, must surely be one of the most extensive, ambitious and richly rewarding works of Anglo-Welsh writing." --www.gwales.com
"For a native work of comparable scope invention and authority ... one has probably to go back . . . to the Mabinogion cycle itself." -"M. Wynn Thomas"
