Miles Franklin-winning Wiradjuri author Tara June Winch says it's a book you feel in all your nerve endings and your blood and your soul when reading it It's staggering in its scope and its themes.
Reviews have expressed similar awe: Astrid Edwards described it as a mind-altering experience that retaught me how to read; Declan Fry wrote that all life, as in Balzac, is here.
Beejay Silcox, a literary critic who chaired the Stella prize judging committee, describes it as neural sherbet. You are lucky if [even] once in your career a book like this comes across your desk.
