Critics Review

Enthralling

An uplifting and achingly honest personal story about loss, trauma and grief. - Woman and Home

Some books have the power to make you reconsider certainties, to reflect, alter and transform previous assumptions about love, sex, freedom, friendship, courage and death. Clover Stroud’s memoir, The Wild Other, is such a book - Telegraph

An astonishing piece of work that at times made my heart burst. All of human life is contained in this book. Clover Stroud is a remarkable woman, and an incredible writer. - Bryony Gordon

A startling and raw memoir, which has drawn comparisons to Cheryl Strayed’s Wild… Brave, beautiful writing, which can’t help but inspire us to find our own “wild others”. - Red magazine

A survivor’s tale that is both redemptive and cathartic. - Observer

Clover Stroud is a born writer: honest, tender, moving and true. A beautiful book. - Cressida Connolly

Horses, family ties, exotic lovers and beautiful writing all saddle up in this thoroughbred ride through love, loss, danger, motherhood and healing. - The Bookseller

A stunning story of courage in the face of fortune’s cruelest blows, Clover Stroud’s extraordinary memoir charts her journey from child to adult, from daughter to mother, proving that bravery - and love - will triumph even in the darkest situations. - Rosie Boycott
