Minna Kelly“Doesn't the title just make you feel better? It's slim but profundities abound and you walk away from it feeling lots of stuff about art, relationships and what it's like to be caught in the net of history. Just finished and want to rewind to the beginning.”

David Coggins“A slim novel that takes place in post WWI English countryside. As wistful as a late-summer evening.”
