Blazing with power, grief and tenderness. Ward takes the territory made so familiar by writers such as William Faulkner or Eudora Welty, and reclaims it -- Praise for 'Sing, Unburied, Sing' * Financial Times * Ward is a lyrical, visceral storyteller, one who is as adept at conveying the tenderness of sibling love as the terror and brutality of racist violence -- Praise for 'Sing, Unburied, Sing' * Daily Mail *
