All is Song - Softcover

"Intense, rewarding and bracingly serious" (Adrian Turpin Financial Times)

"Profoundly beautiful, cathartic writing." (Catherine Taylor Daily Telegraph)

"A fine study of the nature and strength of family ties and the morality, or otherwise, of conforming where it matters" (Kate Saunders The Times)

"This beautifully written composition does that rare thing, of provoking free thought, while scrutinising the far-reaching repercussions of such rebellious activity" (Freya McClelland Independent)

"Harvey's slow, intense thoughtfulness feels positively Woolfean at times. She thinks deeply, and writes beautifully about these thoughts." (Lucy Atkins Sunday Times)

Leonard is alone and rootless, returning to London after his father's death. He moves in with his distant brother William and his family, hoping to renew their friendship but learning to drop his expectations of brotherhood. William is a former lecturer and activist who now runs informal meetings with ex-students. He is defiantly unworldly and forever questioning.
When a young student follows William's arguments to a shocking conclusion, it appears William has already set his own fate in motion. Against a backdrop of tabloid frenzy, Leonard can only watch as William embraces the danger in the only way he knows how, which threatens to consume not only himself, but his entire family.
