"Not as strong as Atonement or Enduring Love. Nevertheless, his ability to conjure an initial scenario which reverberates through the rest of the novel is peerless."
"Superb novel. A watertight exploration of how grief impacts a community, through 4 different narrators, yet is a testament to the ability of the human will to pick up and keep going."
"My favourite novel. Highly original, funny, challenging, haunting. This book is all of those and more. A contender for the most profound novel ever written."
