Recenzii

Warm, wry and genuinely funny. Alice Ryan has a great ability to describe the nuances of people
Here is a story that takes on grief in its many insidious guises, and yet this brave, big-hearted novel is full of warmth and wisdom. Clever, funny and an utterly life-enhancing read
A story told with great generosity and humour... An absorbing, uplifting and very hopeful read
Ryan's real achievement is to dramatize the process by which family - with all its oddities, misfires and intrusions - acts as a force for recuperation and renewal.
A refreshing, hugely entertaining novel with depth and ambition that had me compelled from the off. Alice Ryan is an author I will read forever more
Accomplished debut novel... full of such deep existential questions, as well as poignant reflections on loneliness and connection; family and belonging. But it is also remarkably light and humorous. Ryan has a Marian Keyes-esque touch
This warm and very funny look at family relationships and grief is a brilliant read
Alice Ryan's debut novel is an exploration of the binding force of shared grief and personal history
A heartbreaking, but uplifting read that treats grief, connection and loss with a light, but powerful hand
A warm and witty family drama... Anyone who has suffered the loss of a loved one will recognise the non-linear nature of grief, as depicted in this light-hearted, yet empathetic story, full of wit and warmth. This debut deftly conveys the rich tapestry of family dynamics
An exuberant family saga... Ryan writes with a featherlight touch but her message is supremely warm and hopeful
