Exciting, elegant, urgent, true - her writing is all of these
things and more. One of Ireland's best novelists -- Roddy Doyle
A compelling, beautifully told story . . . I was utterly enthralled
from beginning to end -- Liz Nugent
In Calista and Pilar, Dunne has created two very different, but
equally intriguing characters, and it is impossible not to root for
them as they battle to forge their own way in a world where men
hold sway * Irish Independent *
Lived-in, hardearned feminism swirled with a noir tone and dark
turns makes for a great read * Kirkus Reviews *
Poignant and satisfying * Booklist *
Catherine Dunne can write passion, both in love and in hate, with a
force rarely found in her contemporaries . . . a masterful novel *
