Review
"Themes of loss and forgiveness are at the heart of this haunting tale of self-discovery by an author at the height of her powers . . . Breslin's mesmerising descriptions of the sea and the people who depend upon it captures all the atmospheric beauty of north-west Scotland. A truly memorable story" * The Bookseller * "A sensitive, finely structured novel which unfolds as delicately as a "creamy purl of foam at the water's edge"" * Books for Keeps * "Packs an emotional punch whilst highlighting the contemporary concerns of fishing communities under threat of economic extinction" * Guardian * "Saskia's Journey is a sensitive, finely structured, balanced narrative" * Writeaway! *
