Review

Mercilessly exact and unsentimental about the desolation of old age and the barnacles of family life It is a moving love story, a condemnation of the way we treat our old friends and loves, a rage against the dying of the light - Philip Howard, The Times.
Anger and compassion - not despair - are at the heart of this book - Wendy Brandmark, The Listener.
Its compulsive reading, and ends as it begins, with questions that spill out of the covers - Lorna Sage, The Observer.
Not a comfortable novel, but a mighty powerful one - Susan Hill, Good Housekeeping.
It is closer to real life in a way we hardly expect a novel to be, and finally very moving - Hilary Mantel, The Daily Telegraph.
Brillant and desperately relevant - Auberon Waugh, The Independent.
