‘Wise and compelling … Elegiac and graceful.’ David Mitchell
‘I have admired, even loved, John McGahern’s work since his first novel.’ Melvyn Bragg
‘Gentle, lyrical, an amorist of language, a natural historian of the soul.’ Irish Times
‘Exquisite stories . . . Here is a Dublin of tatty dancehalls and uneasy courtships, of kisses in damp doorways and unfulfilled hungerings . . . Writing of extraordinary beauty.’ Guardian
