a book quite unlike any other I've read - Edmund Gordon Sunday Times * I can't remember being so continually and unfailingly surprised by any book for a long time. In this thoughtful, deeply moving page-turner, Faber excels himself Scotsman * Magnificently bold and addictive. A work of originality and insight - Andrew Billen The Times * There are some novels that come along, when writing a review seems superfluous and all one wants to do is to grab someone by the shoulders and say: "Look, just read the damn thing!". It is maniacally gripping - DAVID MITCHELL * As gripping as any thriller. It is an enquiry into the mountains faith can move and the mountains faith can't move. It is a portrait of a living, breathing relationship, frayed by distance. * Michel Faber's second masterpiece, quite different to The Crimson Petal and The White but every bit as luminescent and memorable.
