'Kevin Barry lights out for the territory and once again comes back with a shining nugget of gold. The Heart in Winter is a glorious and haunted yarn, with all the elements - the doomed lovers, the bounty hunters, the knife-fights and whisky-soaked songs - brought to mysterious life by the heft and polish of the Barry sentence. Marvellous' - JON McGREGOR 'Praise for Kevin Barry: Barry is a clairvoyant narrator of the male psyche and a consistent lyrical visionary' - Guardian 'One of the most abundantly talented novelists writing today' - Daily Telegraph 'If prose were gold and diamonds there'd be thousands of hell-bent prospectors heading for the Black Hills of Kevin Barry's glistening, sparkling novel' - SEBASTIAN BARRY 'Barry is such a deft and generous writer' - New York Times
