Recensione:

"I devoured Kevin Patterson's The Water In Between. He writes with such wisdom and clearheadedness, it made even me yearn for the open seas. It's an extraordinary piece of writing."
--Alex Kotlowitz

"The Water In Between is a terrific literary travel story."
--Toronto Globe and Mail Best Books of the Year

"The Water In Between is well deserving of a place alongside Bruce Chatwin's The Songlines, Peter Matthiessen's The Snow Leopard, and Paul Theroux's The Happy Isles of Oceania, other much-loved voyages of loss, escape, and discovery."
--Quill and Quire (Toronto)
