Conor O'Callaghan is originally from Dundalk, and now divides his time between Dublin and the North of England. This is his first novel.
I greatly admired Conor O'Callaghan's Nothing on Earth, as fine as it is frightening * JOHN BANVILLE * An original story, brilliantly told . . . extraordinary, low-key and pitch-perfect * Irish Times * This one will stay with you like your shadow, as hard to shake off and as impossible to pin down. * Guardian * Strange, beautiful and quietly terrifying * Donal Ryan, author of THE SPINNING HEART * Quite extraordinary . . . like many great works, it could so easily have all gone wrong if it hadn’t been done exactly right. All that can be done is to give it the highest recommendation: read it, and find out for yourself * Sunday Independent *
