Review:
'Lobry de Bruyn's first novel is extraordinarily assured. Her prose is sharp, clear and beautifully restrained, creating a deceptively calm surface over a disturbing and painful story of growing up that stayed with me long after I finished reading.' Georgia Blain, author of Closed for Winter and Candelo 'The language is spare and supple. The narrative voice is a delight... I loved the hilarity of Cat's viewpoint, her levelness, her compassion, and the gentle pathos of both her life and the lives that she observes and remembers.' Kathleen Stewart, author of The Red Room and Spilt Milk
