5.0 out of 5 stars Totally disagree with other review, 4 Feb 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Heligoland (Paperback)
Heligoland is one of Shena Mackay's most accomplished novels and is a beautiful meditation on friendship, family and belonging. The characters are deftly drawn and the book is infused with a tender humour. Rightly shortlisted for the Whitbread and Orange prizes, Heligoland is one of my books of the year.

2.0 out of 5 stars Would have been better as a short story, 30 Sep 2003
This review is from: Heligoland (Hardcover)
This had no plot whatsoever and seemed to be an exercise in creative writing. The place names in the story (most of it was based in and around Norwood, South London)seemed thrown in like she was name dropping. It would only appeal to those who lived in this area as other than that there was no story and I found it very hard to finish.
