This is a troubled collection from a troubled genius whose narrative technique won't appeal to traditionalists. -- Brian Maye * The Irish Times *
Desmond Hogan in this book is writing at a very high pitch of ambition-he is trying to build the cathedral. The project is immense. -- Kevin Barry * The Stinging Fly *
