Brilliant: singular, unsettling and mutative, combining the
mythical and the grotesque with sublime writing and an intense
fascination with the natural world
*Rosie Andrews, bestselling author of THE LEVIATHAN*
THE NORTH SHORE is a haunting evocation of place told by those who
rightly love and fear it. An enticing, wrack-like tangle of myth,
mystery and the power of the sea and its stories.
*Kiran Millwood Hargrave*
The North Shore conjures the atmosphere of the Norfolk coast with
unnerving beauty. This is an unusual and enthralling novel: the
strange events of this story have haunted me.
*Naomi Booth*
A mysterious and compelling tale, I really enjoyed it. Landscape
and memory shift as though colluding in unsettling the past. Myth
competes with truth for attention. The land is a medium for holding
or expressing powers we cannot hope to understand.
*Lulu Allison*
As eerie, bleak and magical as the Norfolk coast itself. An
intriguing narrative of twists and turns, stories and myths, truth
and fable. Tufnell has captured and distilled the very nature of
nostalgia, transforming it into a gripping piece of work that pulls
you in, and won't let you go
*Nick Bradley, author of The Cat and the City*
This is a beautiful, moving, unexpected novel. Its smoothness and
readability bely its depth and complexity, with narratives so
seamlessly interwoven that I can't find the edges. I've learned
many things from The North Shore and will carry it with me for a
long time
*Elvia Wilk*
