Wolf Hollow

Reviews

Atmospheric, haunting and beautifully written, this is a wonderful and very moving story A beautifully written, poignant page turner This book is extraordinary. With shades of To Kill a Mockingbird but inspired by her own mother's family, Lauren Wolk has created a work of fiction where every character lives off the page. It is a gripping, moving, living, breathing tale written by a highly skilled hand. I cannot recommend it enough There are echoes of To Kill a Mockingbird . . . An accomplished and powerful debut Beautifully written, with memorable characters, sensitively handled moral issues and a storyline that lingers long after the final page. I loved it Harper Lee has a worthy successor. Wolk is a big new talent Weaving together complex themes with extraordinary skill, debut author Lauren Wolk has created a book that deserves to be read . . . A timeless story, beautifully placed in an evocative and brilliantly realised historical setting Suspenseful, wise, beautifully written and emotionally engaging Haunting . . . With a precociously perceptive girl as a main character; a damaged, misunderstood recluse; and themes of prejudice and bigotry, comparisons to Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird will abound. But Wolk gives us her own story - one full of grace and stark, ­brutal beauty A powerful, beautifully written coming-of-age novel . . . This emotionally intelligent, complex story deserves recognition and praise Expand reviews
