Review
"* 'The Town That Forgot How To Breathe is an eerle and gripping story, the work of an extravagantly haunted imagination' J. M. Coetzee * 'A novel of dazzling ambition and strange, haunting loveliness. Grippingly entertaining and bursting with life, it is an absolute triumph of the storyteller's art. Many books are hyped as 'unputdownable'. This one really is.' Joe O'Connor * 'Both a contemporary and an historical novel, The Town That Forgot How To Breathe is a tour de force! It speaks of the sea: of those who are upon it, beside it, beneath it. Kenneth J. Harvey, a writer like no other, is as knowledgeable as he is adventurous. A very exceptional book, extraordinary in its power.' Allstair MacLeod"
Christina House
"The Carver-esque sentences, that, like the characters, seldom defer gratification add to the immediacy of the story."
