Some praise for "In Exile":

"Each story in this book is a literary gem. The style, the language are breathtaking. Each sentence begs to be reread. The atmosphere, the people haunt you. The heart of Ireland seems to emerge from the mists and becomes part of our own memories. It’s lyrical, it’s harsh, it touches us profoundly."

"A fine and varied collection. I’m looking forward to whatever the unusual imagination of this writer will offer in years to come."

"I am certain that this writer will be an important voice in Irish literature in the years to come. Highly recommended!"

"In Exile" has also been reviewed in a number of magazines and newspapers from many parts of the world.
