This book needs more hype. I loved the prose and the story. A great deal happens as the story follows a man‘s life from childhood to fatherhood, yet the precision of language makes it a compact and compelling. 5⭐️

This is an imaginative and evocative tale with some fascinating and well drawn characters. I liked Tony and enjoyed following him on his journey. It‘s not always a happy story and it‘s quite dark at times, but still there is a smattering of hope throughout. It‘s beautifully written, well researched and has some vivid and colourful descriptions, quite easy to visualise. An absorbing and powerful read. Ideal for historical fiction fans. #Pigeonhole
