Review:
The work of a great storyteller (The Times)
A joy to read . . . His skilful prose which seems effortlessly to capture the rhythms and cadences of at least six different emigrant races . . . his essential humanity which enables him to examine misery and horror without ever losing his gift for hope and his old-fashioned insistence on a rattling good plot, crammed full of drama, will ensure the reader is thoroughly entertained (Evening Standard)
Keneally makes us feel, very movingly, the intelligence and imaginative openness that lie deeper than Tim's prejudices and inarticulacies . . . a novel [of] great vitality and charm (The Sunday Times)
A remarkably vivid and moving portrayal of a hostile world where good struggles to shine through (Time Out)
A masterpiece (Literary Review)
A great read (Mail on Sunday)
