There’s more going on in The Street than its inhabitants realise . . . In the course of this delightful, quirky and perceptive novel an elderly soldier with incipient Alzheimer’s saves the life of a remarkable child, a resting actor finds real purpose, a woman starved of love discovers it in an unexpected place and a beloved cat achieves immortality.

Reviews

Sunday Mirror
Graceful and haunting
The Times
Lovely, surprising... filled with life and optimism and a wicked sense of comedy... deeply satisfying.
Daily Mail
Unexpected and exciting
Observer, Paperback of the Week
She excels in excavating single moments to powerfully show the profound in the prosaic.
<i>Irish Examiner</i>
The Street is a hugely enjoyable little book that is just a joy.
