The most fascinating and wonderful book
- Jan Morris
Angharad Price's reflection of family history through the prism of fiction is a restrained, lyrical tour de force . . . Shot through with meditations on blindness and insight, this account of one family's passage through the twentieth century is skilfully rendered with grace and quiet power.

To write one's family history in such a way that it is instandly hailed as a literary classic is a remarkable achievement.

Mae hon yn gyfrol sydd wir yn werth ei darllen, a'ch colled chi fyddai peidio gwneud hynny.
- Gwenllian Dafydd, Gwales
Price's book achieves a rare feat indeed. A lovingly crafted account of Welsh-speaking rural life on the brink of dissolution or at least transformation, it serves both as a touching, tender document and as a thoroughly artful exercise in storytelling – one that, in methods and motifs, can claim a place on the shelf beside Berger, Sebald and Ondaatje. Widely hailed as the first Welsh classic of the 21st century, it now stands tall as a peak of modern British writing too.
