The Leveret

The Leveret is a mesmerising and haunting debut from a rare and singular talent. Anna Goldreich has written something so deeply stirring, heartbreaking and filled with ache, it transcends words. Turning the last pages, I was completely speechless. Anna's is a once in a generation talent -- Lucy Rose, author of 'The Lamb' Anna Goldreich writes with searing clarity and immense heart. This is a haunting novel full of rich imagery, distinct voice and so much imagination. Anna Goldreich is clearly a writer to keep an eye on -- Jan Carson, author of 'The Raptures' From the Norwich-based writer Anna Goldreich, The Leveret revolves around Clare and Phoebe, who believe that moving to the countryside will solve their marital woes and give their relationship a new ease of life, especially after the miscarriage of the daughter they were expecting . . . Tissues at the ready * Sunday Times Style * A beautiful but very sad book about grief, love and healing -- Róisín Lanigan, author of 'I Want To Go Home But I'm Already There' * Glamour * Hugely intense and beautifully unsettling - a searing, intimate novel about grief’s wildness — I couldn’t look away -- Orla Mackey, author of 'Mouthing' A brilliantly written, brave debut. The Leveret is deeply affecting about the ferocity of care, and it bounds with all the pain and beauty that comes with that -- Cynan Jones, author of 'The Dig' A tender exploration of grief and the alienation felt after loss, The Leveret is a strikingly mature debut from Anna Goldreich. Clare and Phoebe's relationship to each other, the before and after of tragedy, is depicted with such sensitivity as is their relationship with Isla, leading to an incredibly touching, cathartic final scene -- Joshua Jones, author of 'Local Fires'
