"Lisa Moore's work is passionate, gritty, lucid and beautiful. She has a great gift" -- Anne Enright "Moore's wonderful fluidity of approach is noticeable right down to the level of her individual sentences. It has been a joy indeed to discover Lisa Moore" Daily Telegraph "An astonishing writer. She brings to her pages what we are always seeking in fiction and only find in the best of it: a magnetizing gift for revealing how the earth feels, looks, tastes, smells, and an unswerving instinct for what's important in life" -- Richard Ford "Heart-warming...domestic fiction at its finest... Moore depicts her characters with compassion and respect... Despite the chill of its title, February exudes the warmth and joyousness of a much sunnier world" -- Michael Arditti Daily Mail "Moore slips [small insights] in so gently you barely feel them, turning a sad story simply told into a minor-key triumph" Guardian
