Praise
“Pearl is a gorgeous, swirling, haunted and haunting potion of a book. It embodies like no other the truth that every absence is as singular and elaborate and mysterious as the presence of the thing—or person—it describes, no matter how back to front, inside out, lucidly or ethereally memories of its particulars may come and go. How utterly moving, to be under its beautiful, artful spell.” —Paul Harding, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Tinkers and This Other Eden
“Pearl, an exceptional debut novel, is both a mystery story and a meditation on grief, abandonment and consolation, evoking the profundities of the haunting medieval poem… It’s a book that will be passed from hand to hand for a long time to come.” — The Booker Prize 2023 judges
“Compulsive and wonderfully written, Pearl is a small gem.” —The Times Literary Supplement
