Who is the Roundabout Man? He calls himself Quinn, the name of a boy in a world-famous series of children’s books. What he hopes no one will discover is that he’s the real Quinn, immortalised as a child by his mother in her entrancing tales about a little boy’s adventures with his triplet sisters.
My review:
It’s always been an utter mystery to me why Clare Morrall isn’t more widely known as she’s one of the best living writers we have in the UK. Her books are always a joy to read and this one is no exception. Morrall dissects the convoluted life of Quinn gently and with great compassion, and his life, both as a child and an adult, rings clear and true.
It’s a gripping and humane story, and I loved it. I’m already looking forward to her next book!
