Rezension zu „The Broken Shore “
'A towering achievement that brings alive a ferocious landscape and a motley assortment of clashing characters. The sense of place is stifling in its intensity, and seldom has a waltz of the damned proven so hypnotic. Indispensable.' Maxim Jakubowski, Guardian 'It's hard to know where to start praising this book. Plot, style, setting and characters are all startlingly good The Broken Shore is one of those watershed books that makes you rethink your ideas about reading.' Sydney Morning Herald 'He is writing the kind of books I've been trying to write and writing them better than I do' John Harvey, The Guardian.
