Naming Of Eliza Quinn
«Always understated, yet crammed with incidents of the highest drama, the novel's best moments come when the intense feeling that underlies it breaks out into densely weighted fragments of speech. It is at least as good as anything on this year's Booker shortlist, and I remain as mystified as ever by Carol Birch's absence from that far-from cluttered file of modern novelist whose works are genuinely worth their welcome»
DJ Taylor, GUARDIAN
This is a wonderful, absorbing, epic novel about families and neighbours; about physical and emotional hunger; about love and long memories. Les mer
