Praise for Now That You're Back

“'One of the most brilliant writers of her generation' Sunday Telegraph ”

“'This woman is a profound writer' Richard Ford ”

“'Kennedy has now proved that she is one of the few young writers to have found a distinctive voice, one that we could recognise even from a couple of sentences; and that in itself is already a considerable achievement' Jonathan Coe, Mail on Sunday ”

“'Powerful, acute and wholly convincing' Julian Loose, Sunday Times ”

“'Great short stories are rare if not rarer than great poems and the fact that a handful here possess great magical quality is remarkable-A. L. Kennedy is a writer of original and beguiling diction' Alan Taylor, Scotland on Sunday”
