Moving and numbing...a very great novel - Irish Times
Remarkable...an original and chilling quality -New York Review of
Books
[T]his work...ought to stand beside Primo Levi's If This is a Man -
The Times
Extraordinary - Observer
Should be savoured slowly . . . Only through exploring its subtlety
and detail will the reader come to appreciate such an ornate and
honest testimony to the human spirit
