Praise for Ann Quin

‘Quin works over a small area with the finest of tools. Every page, every word gives evidence of her care and workmanship.’

New York Times

‘Quin’s prose never falters.’

Caitlin Youngquist, Paris Review

‘Vividly intense and almost palpably immediate.’

Irish Times

‘The most naturally and delicately gifted novelist of her generation.’

The Scotsman

‘Quin was a writer ahead of her time.’

Publishers Weekly

‘One of Britain's most adventurous post-war writers. Psychologically dark and sexually daring, Quin's fearlessly innovative prose reads like nobody else.’

Juliet Jacques

‘Quin understood she was on to something new and she took herself seriously, in the right way; she had a serious sense of her literary purpose.’

Deborah Levy

‘Despite ongoing rumours of a B.S. Johnson revival, I feel our attention could be more usefully directed towards Ann Quin.’
