Reviews
This stunning novel has as its core the pulsing heart of love that drives the circulation of every being... Extraordinary * Independent on Sunday *
I simply didn't want it to reach its conclusion... Farley and the supporting characters in The Cold Eye of Heaven have moved into my head and I just don't have the heart to evict them. * Sunday Independent *
Christine Dwyer Hickey's most achieved, taut and nuanced novel to date... Farley is a triumph. * Irish Independent *
The most profound novel I have read for years... As I finished reading, I turned to the first page and began to read again. -- Stevie Davies * Guardian *
