Formidably well done * Guardian * Assured and skillful * The Sunday Times * I greatly enjoyed and admired The Captains and the Kings -- Kingsley Amis * Observer * Elegantly written... it is a tragic story with a merciful ending... Jennifer Johnston knows her Ireland as well as she knows human nature * Irish Times * Jennifer Johnston has written a beauty...full of sharp truth * Daily Telegraph *
