Review:

"I struggle to think of a writer who has been so prolific and consistent in quality as Ryan . . . Brutally honest, moving and often hilarious" * Guardian * "An engrossing, unpredictable, beautifully crafted novel; Donal Ryan is giving us characters - their angles and their language - that we haven't seen in Irish literature before." -- RODDY DOYLE "Donal Ryan has not only bounded over a wall into new territory, but built himself a castle there . . . This is a superb novel." -- JOHN BOYNE "From a Low and Quiet Sea is not only very cleverly constructed, but deeply moving too. I loved it." * Louis de Bernieres * "Donal Ryan writes characters so well that as a reader you think `I've met that man', or `I know that woman.' But as a writer you simply wonder `how does he do it?' From a Low and Quiet Sea is brutal and beautiful, carefully crafted portraits, deep and real, tied together, fashioned by a true artist. I absolutely loved it." -- KIT DE WAAL
