' A Long Way from Home is a novel full of riches. To give away more would risk spoiling the genuine pleasures.' -Patrick Flanery, The Spectator (UK) 'A moving meditation on multiple forms of paternal failure and the culture of racism that have shaped modern Australia. A wild, strange, magical ride of a book.' -Sam Leith, The Telegraph (UK) 'Peter Carey's new novel is a pretty remarkable beast. It's one of Carey's best, and boldest, efforts yet.' -Anthony Domestico, The Boston Globe A Long Way from Home charts old territory and strikes out in new directions. filled with flashes of poetic brilliance. Those conflicting goals ultimately find perfect expression in Carey's strange narrative.' -Ron Charles, The Washington Post 'What a delightful writer Peter Carey is, and how varied are the delights he offers. determined to unearth the richness of Aboriginal culture even while respecting its secrets. a rich narrative stew.' -Robert Douglas Fairhurst, The Times (UK) ' on-the-road adventure, revisionist history and moral fable. Intensely engaging in more ways than one, high-octane novel.' -Peter Kemp, The Sunday Times (UK)

this is the first time he's directly dealt with Aboriginal history, and A Long Way From Home is all the more powerful for it.' -Lucy Scholes, The Independent (UK) (four stars) 'Peter Carey deserves the Nobel Prize in literature for lifting the heart.' -Allison Pearson, The Telegraph (UK) 'His best novel in years, maybe decades.' -Alex Preston, The Guardian (UK) 'Not since True History of the Kelly Gang has he seemed so on-song.' -Andrew Dickson, Financial Times
