Reviews
-
'An eloquent and moving statement of the power of love and the belief that it will triumph in the end'
Barry Unsworth, Guardian
-
'Powerful and moving ... an absorbing and intelligent novel'
Times Literary Supplement
-
'Gripping and believable ... In an age where reason and science have shown themselves inadequate to fulfil the human dream of perfection, it is important that serious writers such as Williams face the perennial questions of faith and love'
Irish Times
-
'Niall Williams' lyrical prose often takes a form similar to prayer but this feels natural rather than contrived. Williams prefers to focus on the workings of love; his exploration of the tensions and contradictions of faith is enough to compensate'
New Statesman
