Review:
Susie Steiner's debut novel is kitchen-sink drama meets The Archers - a powerful, visceral portrait of the ties that bind, and those that break. Steiner has written a truly exceptional study of human flaws and frailties. -- Lucy Scholes Observer Who will inherit the farm?' is the big question at the heart of this warm and engaging first novel, set in Yorkshire. The farming details are beautifully deployed, to show a family renewing itself as much as the land it lives on. -- Kate Saunders The Times The Archers meets Anne Enright in Susie Steiner's involving debut novel, set on the Yorkshire moors. Steiner's novel skifully captures Yorkshire in all its ordinary beauty ... and her plot is satisfyingly complex. Homecoming is readable, heart-breaking and true. Simple Things Magazine The story is very much rooted in the complex relationships in the Hartle family. Rich descriptions of 'raising the beet' and the bracken 'which is brown and thick with pheasant' given anauthentic feel to Steiner's debut novel. By the time we come full circle at the end of the farming year, you feel you're part of the Hartle family, warts and all. Daily Express 'Homecoming offers many parallels between family and flock, with strands of straying and return. Steiner's realism [is] equally attuned to grim human avarice and warm humour.' Financial Times
