Sunday Times
The Green Road is true and rueful, as terribly adult in its clarity as its battered Madigans.
James Wood
New Yorker
Enright is a shape-shifter who gets into the nerve centres of her creations; the power of her prose lies in its absence of ego. The Green Road is a devastating novel about home and how savage a place it can be.
Frances Wilson
New Statesman
This novel should confirm Enright's status as one of our (their?) greatest living novelists. I hope she can be persuaded to do a sequel.
John Sutherland
The Times
[A] brilliant, devastating, radical novel.
Kate Clanchy
Guardian
