RaveFinancial Times (UK)... an exceptionally bold, violent and blackly comic tale, wilfully designed to raze your preconceptions of a young female novelist to the root ... The plot, for what it’s worth, concerns a Doe woman, armed with a Kalashnikov, taking revenge for the stealing of a lover ... What it’s really about is 1970s Northern Ireland and, if you give yourself up to Burns’s delirious imagination, you’ll find much salient wisdom, as well as dark humour, in her take on the Struggles.
