'There is something rare and special about Vickers... She manages to touch something buried deep in all of us.' Independent
Eli was not quite seven years old when he discovered that he was different. At that time, in most ways, he was a quite ordinary child, with the usual traits, good and bad, that ordinary little boys will have. But in one important respect he differed from the ordinary.
One March day, Eli looked into the eyes of his friend Thomas Wilkes and said, 'You are going to die on Tuesday.'
And when the following Tuesday, after school, Tommy Wilkes fell from his treehouse and broke his neck it was inevitable that questions were asked.
'A deceptively wild, seamlessly well-crafted collection' The Times on Aphrodite's Hat
'A box of delights... both impressive and delightfully disorienting' Guardian on Aphrodite's Hat
'Beautifully simple with a devastating emotional climax...' Sunday Times on Aphrodite's Hat
'If you enjoy the work of Marilynne Robinson, Penelope Fitzgerald, James Salter or Anita Brookner, you should be reading Vickers.' Washington Post
