Neverhome

6 March, 2015
Author: Laird Hunt
Genre: Fiction
Category: New Books

Nicky Dunne says: 'Inspired by the true story of Rosetta Wakeman, who disguised herself as a man and enlisted with the Union Army, this fine, compelling novel brilliantly conveys life on the frontline during the American Civil War. Laird Hunt is a superb and imaginative storyteller. His narrator's beguiling, original and convincing voice, conjures up a character rich in mystery amid the dirt and squalor of war. Short enough to read in almost one sitting.'
