Editorial Reviews

Review

'His tact and pacing, in the individual sentence and the overall story, are beautiful: in his best work, the elegiac is bodied forth in perfectly pondered images and rhythms... McLaverty's place in our literature is secure.' Seamus Heaney --This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
