Rousseau's Lost Children

Smart, formally playful, and psychologically astute, Rousseau's Lost Children is a novel of ideas with moral insight and real emotional power. * Ferdia Lennon, author of GLORIOUS EXPLOITS *
Praise for Cells * : *
'Flayingly authentic and sensationally compelling . . . One of the best books of the year' * Observer *
Cells is a raw, throbbing thing; the literary equivalent of an open wound, but one that's been cauterised by a highly skilled surgeon . . . the story of the making of an acutely talented writer . . . One of the very best, most authentic, beautiful, and brutal depictions of a deep and abiding, albeit imperfect love between a son and his mother * The Telegraph *
'Raw and deeply affecting' * Guardian *
'A heart-stopping excavation of the self . . . Cells will heighten the capacity for empathy in all who read it. Not least of all, empathy for the self' * Irish Times *
'Beautifully written, fearless, vulnerable, self-aware . . . Cells will comfortably sit alongside other great Irish memoirs by Nuala O'Faolain and John McGahern' -- Colum McCann
