Editorial Reviews
Review
The Herald’s Paperback of the Week (10-17 Nov 2012) ‘An imaginative and engaging work.’ ‘There’s a thematically rich subtext working away under the surface leaving tantalising but mysterious traces on the narrative.’ ‘Reeder balances the various levels of her story with surprising effectiveness, while consistently engaging the emotions too.’ [Alastair Mabbott] ‘A haunting book about a dysfunctional, fascinating family.’ 4/5 STARS [Johnny Chess] –THE HERALD MAGAZINE and THE SKINNY
‘When you re reading Fremont, no higher purpose creeps in to your mind, because nothing can distract you from the epic, intense and entrancing journey of this beautifully dysfunctional family.’ ‘With Kohl Publishing marking their intention to deliver books you can think about and books you wish you d written, I have no doubt they probably almost ripped Reeder’s arm off when the manuscript for this first hit their desk.’ [Cariad Martin] ‘The writing in this book is great. In fact, it’s probably one of my very favorite things about this book. Even with the difficult subject matter, the book almost as a floating, dream-like sort of feel.’ 4/5 STARS [Meg] –FOR BOOKS’ SAKE and A BOOKISH AFFAIR
