Whatever sets her going - and whatever her tone, whether angry, rueful, funny, exuberant, joyous or disabused - Polly Devlin's reflections make an impact. She is a champion of right thinking, up to the hilt in crusading commentary, always on the side of the angels." - Dublin Review of Books
"Eloquent and open-minded, Writing Home stands testimony to a life well-lived. It champions feminism as 'The F Word'. I'd add that it exemplifies the virtues of family and fearlessness." - Country Life
"...affectionate sketches of friends including Nuala O’Faolain and her brother-in-law Seamus Heaney...ring with truth and tenderness." - Irish Times
"Polly nails with detail and devilment the very essence of an encounter or an issue. After a glimpse into that quicksilver mind whose interior we imagine is as eclectic, cluttered and joyful as the actual interiors she creates, we are the better for it...a treat." - The Gloss
"Required reading for women of 'd'un certain age', read it and smile." - RTE.com
"A glorious serendipitous mix of material...[the author] retains a very clear voice that is her own. She's also a fantastic writer. She manages to convey a huge amount with a few well-chosen words, so that after reading her book I feel I know her intimately and like her tremendously." - The Chiswick Calendar
"I passionately love this book...the writing and the spirit, the cauldron of lives and language, the moral rigour, the observation...I wish I had published it." - Carmen Callil
