Children's Books Ireland: recommended reads
The absolute pinnacle of short fiction writers for any age group . . . I’m sure Lanagan has been compared to Angela Carter elsewhere but the often over-looked strange stories of Robert Aickman also spring to mind. Lanagan has a beguiling imagination while her prose is luxurious quicksand and its all too easy for the reader to become dragged under.
- Keith Gray, The Scotsman
10 emotional short stories - all beautifully and hauntingly written...These are not stories to race through, they are stories to be savoured.
Parents in Touch
We should always make time for short stories. Especially if they are written by Margo Lanagan...Everything is earthy even when it's magic, and so, so believable. I get lost in the worlds she creates and sometimes it's quite difficult to wake myself up when I've finished reading.
- Jill Murphy, The Book Bag
