So beautiful and so raw. Devotion is impossibly good.' - Evie Wyld'Such a glorious love story. And the poetry of the landscape had, for me, a Whitmanesque sensibility. A mighty impassioned cry to love and the land.' - Sarah Winman'Devotion is rare and exquisite, both beautiful and muscular in its portrayal of love found and denied. It's a story of love as a radical act, and a celebration of place and persistence. As we've come to expect from Kent, this is masterful storytelling with pull-no-punches stakes. It's taken root in my heart.' - Kiran Millwood Hargrave'I absolutely love this book. Hannah Kent writes some of the most transcendently beautiful prose I've ever read.' - Magda Szubanski'Devotion is a rich, often surprising novel, written with the sort of prosody poets like me are always seeking.' - The Conversation Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
