Reviews

"A first novel of integrity and power" Times Literary Supplement "The alert and feeling realism of MacLaverty's story...had a rare purity of intention and texture... a deeply humane first novel" Guardian "To deal convincingly with innocence and the impossibility of innocence without being falsely naive...is a special gift, and Bernard MacLaverty displays it with great skill" Observer "A performance of great assurance and tenderness" Spectator
