Review:
"Some years, very good books win the Man Booker Prize but this year a masterpiece has won it" (A.C. Grayling, Chair of Judges, Man Booker Prize 2014)
"A novel of extraordinary power, deftly told and hugely affecting. A classic in the making... Masterful" (Observer)
"Devastatingly beautiful" (Sunday Times)
"Utterly convincing... A grand examination of what it is to be a good man and a bad man in the one flesh, and, above all, of how it is to live after survival... To say Flanagan creates a rich tapestry is to overly praise tapestries" (Thomas Keneally Guardian)
"Elegantly wrought, measured and without an ounce of melodrama, Flanagan's novel is nothing short of a masterpiece" (Financial Times)
