Go Catherine! The ball started rolling here folks...
WHAT WAS LOST by Catherine O’Flynn
This 'tender and heartbreaking' gem of a novel is currently on Amazon's bestseller lists and is rapidly becoming a popular word-of-mouth success.
Featured on the Simon Mayo Show (22.03.07) as the Radio Five Live Book of the Month for March the book panel's praise and reader feedback was unanimously positive - 'wonderful' 'incredible' 'beautiful' - with comparisons to Mark Haddon for the characters' quirky appeal and to Douglas Coupland's Generation X for the novel's subtlety and acute contemporary feel.

Not bad eh?
Of course, you don't want to do a crazy thing like buy a book from Amazon though. We gave Catherine five stars from day one! Shop local folks, before the whole country is covered in corrugated iron warehouses and the only places to shop are the internet and Tesco.
thank you very much for recommendation, I bought it (from my local independent), read it, loved it and have recommended it everywhere since. best wishes Jonathan
