Review quote
'Mothering Sunday is a powerful, philosophical and exquisitely observed novel about the lives we lead, and the parallel lives - the parallel stories - we can never know ... It may just be Swift's best novel yet.' -- The Observer 'From start to finish Swift's is a novel of stylish brilliance and quiet narrative verve ... Swift is a writer at the very top of his game' -- Evening Standard 'A work of gold from the subtle pen of the great Graham Swift' -- Le Monde
