Light Lifting Bewertungen

A thoughtful, beautifully crafted, big-hearted work -- Anne Enright
Alexander MacLeod's control of cadence and rhythm is so complete that it seems effortless. These stories offer a real pleasure which comes from the sense of life and emotional honesty in them. The pleasure also comes from their beautiful tone and something in the voice which is both relaxed and perfect. They contain a rare kind of truthfulness. -- Colm Toibin
Every so often a new writer comes along with a true gift for language...an elegant, conversational simplicity * LA Times *
Outstanding -- Suzi Feay * Independent *
Brilliant...engrossing, thrilling and ultimately satisfying: each story has the weight of a novel * The Economist *
