The Wilderness by Sarah Duguid
A beautifully observed, wry novel of the dislocation of family life and a marriage, and of loss and love, set on the western coast of Scotland
Praise for The Wilderness:
'Almost indecently readable. . Duguid keeps the tension almost at boiling point' * Daily Mail *
'Darkly beautiful and exquisitely written, I loved this haunting story' * Eve Chase *
'Pungently atmospheric . . . beautiful descriptions' * Metro *
'Evocative, stunning and so beautifully written, the landscape of the wilderness smothers Anna as effectively as her marriage has always done. A powerful book about how the needs of men often consume the women and girls around them. I absolutely loved it' * Araminta Hall *
'Insightful, moving, and with a gloriously described location where nature rules' * Peterborough Telegraph *
'Beautifully written and well-paced - a real page-turner which I read in two sittings . . . I can still picture every corner of the island as though I was there - a place of unease, mystery and wild beauty' * Goodreads reviewer *
A slender, intense book that explores grief and love, but with such a sharp attention to detail that I found it very difficult to put down * Netgalley review *
A clever exploration of family and grief. Not only is this a very well-written book with wonderfully-interesting characters, but the suspense builds at just the right pace as the story unfolds * Netgalley review *
A wonderful, intense, evocative experience' * Carole Hailey *
Praise for Look at Me:
With characters that are sharply observed with a beady eye for detail, this is a haunting study of family, grief, and loss * Daily Mail *
This slender novel puts a fragile family under the spotlight with great effect * Cathy Rentzenbrink *
Exquisitely written, with a beautiful balance between darkness and humour * Joanna Cannon *
A clever exploration of family and grief * Red *
'Swept away in the depth and darkness of her storytelling, the beauty of the landscape and these fragile, damaged relationships' * Emma Stonex *
