Review: Tin Man
Gaby Meares
And I wonder what the sound of a heart breaking might be. And I think it might be quiet, unperceptively so, and not dramatic at all. Like the sound of an exhausted swallow falling gently to earth."
I am struggling to write a review that can adequately convey my feelings about this novel. There is an overarching sense of melancholy and yearning and wistfulness that remains with the reader long after the last page.
This is a novel to be savoured, preferably in one sitting, and to be returned to, again and again.
