Rezensionen

[A] remarkable book... [The Shapeless Unease is] an extraordinary journey, but it's also mesmerising. Harvey writes with hypnotic power and poetic precision about - well, about everything: grief, pain, memory, family, the night sky, a lake at sunset, what it means to dream and what it means to suffer and survive.
