Recenzii
A
lean,
powerful
book
about
quiet,
emotional
people
Wilson's prose is rich and nuanced
It's Wilson's voice that is outstanding, both raw and erudite
Bracing, even breathtaking
Flinty, hard-edged prose ... Wonderfully tense ... There's no doubt that Wilson can write
It certainly packs a manly punch
Wilson's debut novel ... Provides all the macho behaviour expected of its title - shooting, hunting and grunting abound - but this is softened by the philosophising of Alan and Archer
