'But this book is more than your average British-Asian venting space. It is also a love song to Britain -the sheer beauty of trees, snowfall, birds, insects. Rife with ghost moths, garden tigers, early thorns, cinnabars, goldfinches, geraniums, rosehips and cherry trees, you will suddenly trip upon things like "blue fish scales, each resembling a boiled sweet sucked down to a sharp silver between tongue and roof of mouth".
A book after 11 years. Aslam's earlier novel Season of the Rainbirds won the Betty Trask Award and the Authors' Club Best First Novel Award and was long-listed for the Booker. This one has a lot to live up to , and it does. The novel may be a reminder of the 'issues' of multicultural Britain, but more than that, it is utter poetry.'
