Professional reviews
"Placing itself perfectly alongside acclaimed work by Philipp Meyer, and J. M. Coetzee, this debut novel charts the story of rural Alabama in the 1920s. “Virginia Reeves has a gift for bringing to life all the tensions that emerge wherever people, place and progress collide. I absolutely loved it.” KEVIN POWERS, author of The Yellow Birds. “A potent mix of icy honesty and heart-wrenching tenderness.” JIM CRACE"
