Review:
"Powerful.... If you haven't read McGahern, this is a good place to start, at the heart of a lyric grief and an embittering passion."
--The New York Times Book Review "Few have a story so full of pain and beauty as that of the revered Irish man of letters John McGahern."
--The Boston Globe "McGahern seeks not to exploit his past but to understand it and to make it pertinent and meaningful to others."
--The Washington Post Book World
