Daverley’s first novel... will intrigue those interested in thought processes and motivations versus outward expressions of that inner turmoil ... The will-they-won’t-they question of whether Will and Rosie become a couple is as compelling and frustrating to read about as it is to watch in real life.
Daverley’s descriptive powers make even the ordinary seem significant ... As much as Talking at Night is a love story between two people, it is also a meditation on family and the vagaries of grief when bonds are broken.
