'profound, raw and visceral'
Roffey manages to write a profound, raw and visceral, earthy, bittersweet tale of a woman cursed, drawn from the sea, returned to land, to survive, heal and live again, as a real woman in modern times before ultimately returning once more to the sea.
No wonder this book won the Costa awards, its a magical, powerful, haunting story which draws on Caribbean folklore and feels real and rooted. I didn't just read this book I actually felt every word in my bones.
