"A thoughtful window on life, muscle and the hunt for weightlessness. Just the idea cuts you up" DBC Pierre, Man Booker Prize winning author of 'Vernon God Little'. "The Olyphants are Cut Up is a wonderful novel, experienced like a film shot through mottled glass - coming in and out of focus with the details evoking the bigger picture again and again. Inside the straining muscle and bone of the lead characters, Evans locates the nerve centre of their vulnerability, the place we all share." Nigel Levy, writer/director
