Have The Men Had Enough? Reviews

A moving story, a condemnation of the way we treat our old friends and loves, a rage against the dying of the light -- Philip Howard * The Times *
A novel painfully full of feeling, and totally credible-the passion shines through -- Isabel Quigly * Financial Times *
A memorably touching story about the pressures on a family trying to do their best... A wonderfully accurate, powerful and even funny portrait -- Graham Lord * Sunday Express *
It is close to life in a way we hardly expect a novel to be, and finally very moving -- Hilary Mantel * Daily Telegraph *
An extremely skilful and angry novel...beautifully written -- Anita Brookner * Spectator *
