Why read it?
1 author picked Nothing On Earth as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
What stands out most after reading this story is the writing itself—simple and direct, unadorned, yet the narrative is complex and nuanced.
O’Callaghan is the author of several books of poetry and his prose is dripping with beautiful language. In this story, a frightened girl bangs on the door of a home and after she is allowed to enter, nothing is ever the same with an air of mystery surrounding her life and her family.
The novel is strange, unsettling, and beautiful. And although at times it is a bit perplexing, leaving you wondering what is real and what is…
From David's list on the essence of the Irishman’s melancholic emotions.
