This is a new author to me and one I see I need to look into. However, and as an aside, I always view with suspicion blurbs of the "For all readers of Ian McEwan's Atonement or L P Hartley's The Go-Between" type as in the Goodreads page. At least I can see the similarity there; sometimes the books cited have nothing at all in common to my eye.
