Review:
"Brilliant, tender, a stylistic dazzler" (Hilary Mantel)
"A dazzling achievement" (Time Out)
"Morvern is a brilliant creation... more than a stunning debut novel; to my mind it establishes Alan Warner as one of the most talented, original and interesting voices around" (Irvine Welsh)
"Morvern is a compelling creation; elusive, enigmatic and opaque. Both ordinary and extraordinary, she gleams out like onyx from a vivid, macabre and lyrical book" (Guardian)
"Not since Camus' The Outsider has a voice with so many angles hopped and fluttered from the pages, has a note risen to chill in its opening breath" (Scotland on Sunday)
