A sly masterly novel
Literary Review
Full of delicious satire, Grimshaw is much lauded in New Zealand and should have entered the British consciousness long ago.
Carla McKay, Daily Mail
The unsettling juxtaposition of urbanity and blood-letting that characterises Grimshaw's other fiction keeps things edgy and jumpy here
New Zealand Herald
Grimshaw cleverly depicts a series of power struggles as her characters seek to manipulate each other, forcing the reader to question their motives.
Anna-Maria Ssemuyaba, Times Literary Supplement
Opening the pages of Charlotte Grimshaw’s new novel Soon is akin to tilting the blinds in a dim room; the razor-like precision of her words flood your mind with crisp, searing light, such is the vivid clarity of her prose... It’s a wonderful novel which explores morality and the extent to which we are responsible for our own actions.
Steph Zajkowski, TVNZ
