Reviews
'Davina Quinlivan is a writer of rare gentleness and insight: In Shalimar she winds us into the skein of her extended diasporic family, expressing the complexity of identity today. Deftly she weaves back and forth in time, as she braids these memories, in a sustained, observant, poetic act of attention, and love.' Marina Warner; 'Evocative and heartfelt.' Helena Lee; 'A haunted archive, a casket full of memories, myths and dreams. A strange and startling cargo of ancestors, brought vividly to life by a magician.' Jeff Young; 'Shalimar is dreamlike and full of sensation. Quinlivan constellates memory, place and belonging with rarely-seen subtlety.' Jessica J. Lee
