”“Funny, scatological, terrifying, heartwarming and heartbreaking” – Sunday Times
“As taut as Steinbeck’s Of Mice and Men, Lark rings with truth, humour, humanity and pathos” – New Statesman
“Heartrending but perfectly pitched” – The Observer
“As ever, McGowan’s understanding of masculine youth – its brashness and unexpected tenderness – is evident, and there is a quiet worldliness underpinning the whole” – Literary Review
