Review:
"Dabydeen is a poet as well as a novelist, and his language transcends the discordant unwholesomeness of the England he describes. Such startling imagery gives Disappearance a perky beauty softening its stark message." —The Sunday Times
"His 'condition of England' novel is both provocative and accomplished." —The Times Literary Supplement
"His 'condition of England' novel is both provocative and accomplished." —The Times Literary Supplement
