'An exquisite novel...a treat to be lingered over'
'From the opening lines, THE MARINER'S STAR seizes and holds you by the force of its writing, with startling, vital images on every page and the musical rhythms of the prose...THE MARINER'S STAR is a love story and, like all great love stories, a death story... The novel's cumulative effect is emotionally rocking. The writing is so evocative that to read it feels like being inside a painting...I wasn't far in before I was wondering whether there was anything much Candida Clark couldn't do. By page 43, I had already recommended the book twice. By the end, I was making a list of people to whom I intended to give it...It left me feeling hollowed out and weepy, although I hesitate to say so, because its overall effect is of such intense, and profound, pleasure' - Geraldine Bedell, OBSERVER
Praise for THE LAST LOOK
'As close as prose can get to poetry and vividly feels its way around in
two people's minds' JP Donleavy
'A bright little jewel - passionate, glittering, wonderfully allusive, with
a narrative line that is both subtle and complex. It is full of pleasures,
many of them sensual' Paul Theroux
'Clark hits the ground running in this haunting first novel' Telegraph
'Beautifully written' The Times
'Sensuous and confident...rich in striking poetic language' Guardian
'Every moment is intensely vivid... Clark's writing is heavily poetic'
The Times
'Maturity way beyond her years... an extremely powerful piece of writing'
Oxford Times
Praise for THE CONSTANT EYE:
'Bringing to mind the best work of Muriel Spark... this is writing that
restores the sense of novels being a forbidden treat' Independent
'Audacious...works very well' Telegraph
'An idiosyncratic mix of icy elegance and stewed carnality...richly
energetic' Guardian
'Vice-like and urgent, Clark's writing grips you while its poetry demands
slow savouring. The result is a book that renders its reader a voluntary
captive until the close' Metro
'A meditation on the nature of writing itself... by challenging our
expectations, Clark forces us to read carefully, and to be aware of the
very seductiveness of storytelling' New Statesman
'Intense, direct prose... a smart chalking-up of the price life must pay
for art' Condé Nast Traveller
