Ten pages in and all the bells start ringing. It explodes into your chest. (Caitlin Moran)
A life told from deep down inside, beautiful, harrowing, and ultimately rewarding the way only a brilliant work of literature can be. (Michael Chabon)
An instant classic account of Irish girlhood that has catapulted McBride into the front rank of modern fiction. (Observer)
