Summary
Morrissey’s extraordinary novel
“Beware the novelist … intimate and indiscreet … pompous, prophetic airs … here is the fact of fiction … an American tale where, naturally, evil conquers good, and none live happily ever after, for the complicated pangs of the empty experiences of flesh-and-blood human figures are the reason why nothing can ever be enough.

Critics Review
What did the reviewers expect? An elegant disquisition on the pitfalls of modern marriage? A tragi-comic look at what can go wrong when you move to the country? … [This is] a gothic fantasy … there is a Joycean freedom to its playfulness … [and] his writing on loss and ageing can be exquisite. … It’s a carnivalesque antidote to all those earnest, urban epics by the graduate trainees of the literary scene. … Inimitable and irreplaceable. Long may he joyously jiggle his art in our faces, whether we like it or not – Melissa Katsoulis * The Times *
In this, his first novel, he delivers superb prose fiction from start to finish. A spellbinding, gnostic tale about the world on a downward spiral – Uwe Schutte * Times Higher Education *
