"A powerful, moving adventure of raw fate and betrayed love" Independent on Sunday "This is a tremendous book, affecting, intelligent, ironic, humane and utterly convincing. It is also extremely funny" Spectator "Inishowen is a vast page-turner, full of compassion, laughter and zest for the human condition, as well as a rattling good story" Irish Times "O'Connor is an enviably talented writer... A very fine novelist" Glasgow Herald "Ireland's most versatile writer... His storytelling is masterful, and his characters are real and vibrant... A sombre, often heartbreaking story... O'Connor conducts his bittersweet symphony with humour, sensitivity and immense style" Independent on Sunday
