Review
'Harvesting is shocking and shockingly good. It is thought-provoking, anger-provoking, guilt-provoking, and most importantly it is a brilliantly written novel.' --Roddy Doyle
'This is one of the most gut-wrenching, shiver-inducing pieces of fiction I have ever read. The word compelling is too hackneyed when it comes to a novel such as this. Each line is gripping: mind and body are hooked into a world you don't want to know exists, but which thrives under our very noses... electrifying.' --Sunday Independent
'In much the same way that Louise O'Neill's book Asking For It was a damning indictment of, and a clarion call to the discussion surrounding rape culture, Harding's book will do similarly good things for the discourse surrounding trafficking and sex work in Ireland... shocking, gut-wrenching... a new writer worth your time.' --Sunday Business Post
‘Impressive and profoundly moving. It’s a harrowing read, but is never gratuitous.’ – Irish Examiner
‘Harding is to be commended for writing about such an important and under-reported topic... a character-driven and highly dramatic novel...vivid and credible’. – The Irish Times
‘This is an important book and should open many a debate ... [Harding] writes with power and compassion, and is a force to be reckoned with.’ – Books Ireland
‘A terrific piece of work ... engaging and darkly compelling.’ – Catherine Dunne
‘A brilliantly written, heartfelt, heart-breaking tale of two young girls, its lucid breadth and depths read like an indictment of our patriarchal globe.’ – Anthony Glavin
