Advance Praise
'A true wonder' Max Porter
'A blackly comic journey into the abyss . . . Beautifully written . . . Barry is a clarvoyant narrator of the male psyche and a consistent lyrical visionary . . . What distinguishes this book beyond its humour, terror and beauty of description is its moral perception . . . It is a plunging spiritual immersion into the parlous souls of wrongful men' Guardian
'It’s a Kevin Barry novel, so the brilliance is expected; everything else is a brilliant surprise' Roddy Doyle
'If prose were gold and diamonds there’d be thousands of hell-bent prospectors heading for the Black Hills of Kevin Barry’s glistening, sparkling novel' Sebastian Barry
