Reviews
-
Powerful and beautifully written … Harrison is the traditional being, a nature writer with a knowledge and eye for detail that recalls Thomas Hardy and John McGahern. And that makes this novel impossible to forget
The Times
-
A work of rare magic
Helen Macdonald, author of 'H is for Hawk'
-
An incredible evocation of one particular corner of rural England in the 1930s ... with this novel she's done what I've long suspected she would: she's written a masterpiece
Jon McGregor, author of 'Reservoir 13'
-
A powerful and lyrical coming-of-age story from a writer who is fast establishing herself as one of the best contemporary exponents of the pastoral novel
Observer
-
A deeply atmospheric work, steeped in the rhythms and traditions of the English countryside and the rhythms and traditions of its literature. Its texture – dense, hypnotic and beautifully rendered – is oddly daring. The fusing of ancient natural cycles and farming techniques with powerfully descriptive prose and rich characterisation feels luxuriant on the page … Startling

The sleeper hit of the year
