Trade Review
Superbly atmospheric. The dark tones of Poe in her haunting have the elasticity of Haruki Murakami’s surreal mental landscapes. * Independent *
The kind of prose that creeps off the page, crawls up the spine and burrows deep into the reader’s paralysed mind. * Daily Mail *
White is for Witching should establish Oyeyemi as an ambitious voice in modern macabre; master of the light, lyrical touch and dark, half-hinted suggestion. * The Times *
Entrancing. * TLS *
Helen Oyeyemi was a literary prodigy. Now, she is ready to make the transition from wunderkind to established author. Remarkable. * Daily Telegraph *
