“Barry succeeds admirably in creating complex individuals who find themselves trapped in a brutal reality.”—Los Angeles Times

Praise for On Canaan's Side:

“Sebastian Barry's handling of voice and cadence is masterly. His fictional universe is filled with life, quiet truth and exquisite intimacy; it is also fully alert to the power and irony of history.

“[Barry’s] words have a stony allure of the Irish poets and the lyrical pull of an epic storyteller.”—The Boston Globe
