Reviews
This book is complete perfection
Poised and pitch-perfect throughout
Dense, thought-provoking, sensitive, satisfying, humorous, humane - a real treat
As rich and inventive as we would expect from this brilliant author
An uplifting, immensely empathetic novel, and Gale's prose, as ever is as clear and bright as the Cornish light
