Have devoured Old God’s Time. I love all of Sebastian Barry’s books, this one is as beautifully written as all the others but with so much more. Such a heart-rending story so we’ll told.

I loved both Old Gods Time - so sad and moving and The house of doors. Another brilliant book from Tan Twan Eng. Brought back memories of travelling in Penang years ago. Fabulous atmospheric story.

Just loved Old God’s Time and The Bee Sting. So many Irish writers are pure joy.

Loved Old Gods Time. Would recommend it to anyone.

Ditto House of Doors. The first Tan Twan Eng novel I've read - such beautiful writing.

Coming into the last two Booker longlisters, Pearl and The House of Doors as my favourites. Will see where the last two land in my shortlist.

Pensioner here. Would be a real shame if you were to disappear behind a pay wall. Just sayin'.
