"Richards has a wonderful ear for the cadence of the language, and his compassion for his poorest characters' misery is infectious...the best of Richards' work is dark in tone, both harshly realistic and lyrically sympathetic to the most disadvantaged members of society." – The Globe and Mail
"...stark and affecting...Richards shows how powerfully the novel can operate as a mode of moral exploration a fact sometimes forgotten in the age of postmodern irony." – Publishers Weekly
"Wit and acuity mark out this Canadian writer of unaffected, unsentimental integrity." – The Observer (U.K.)
