'. one of the most significant contemporary storytellers at work today.' Colm Toibin, author of Brooklyn '. there is not a more important writer working in Australia today.' Australian Bookseller & Publisher '. one of our most important novelists.' Age 'Tsiolkas has become that rarest kind of writer in Australia, a serious literary writer who is also unputdownable, a mesmerising master of how to tell a story. He has this ability more than any other writer in the country .' Peter Craven, Sun-Herald 'One of the most astute chroniclers and critics of our age and culture, Tsiolkas is a passionate, poetic, political polemicist, but his critiques take the form of enthralling stories that are peopled with characters that bounce off the page.' Adelaide Advertiser 'Tsiolkas is a hard-edged, powerful writer . leaves us exhausted but gasping with admiration.' Washington Post 'The sheer energy of Tsiolkas' writing-its urgency and passion and sudden jags of tenderness-is often an end in itself: a thrilling, galvanising reminder of the capacity of fiction to speak to the world it inhabits.' James Bradley, Monthly
