Recensione:
“A life told from deep down inside, beautiful, harrowing, and ultimately rewarding the way only a brilliant work of literature can be.” (Michael Chabon, author of The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay)
“A virtuosic debut: subversive, passionate, and darkly alchemical. Read it and be changed.” (Eleanor Catton, author of The Luminaries)
“Eimear McBride is that old-fashioned thing, a genius...The adventurous reader will find that they have a real book on their hands, a live one, a book that is not like any other...[it] is an instant classic.” (Anne Enright, author of The Gathering)
“This is a simply brilliant book...emotionally raw and at the same time technically astounding. McBride's prose is as haunting and moving as music, and the love story at the heart of the novel as true and wrenching as any in literature. I can't recommend it highly enough.” (Elizabeth McCracken, author of An Exact Replica of a Figment of My Imagination)
“[W]ritten in a Joycean stream of consciousness with an Irish lilt, [McBride’s] sentence fragments transmit the pervasive sense of urgency, of thoughts spinning faster than the tongue can speak...An unforgettable novel.” (Publisher's Weekly, starred review)
