The Sound of Turquoise by Gill Gregory (published by Kingston University Press) has received more praise today, including these two fantastic quotes:
'Gill Gregory’s The Sound of Turquoise is a wonderful, compelling story. I was crying and laughing and loving this book and its characters all the way through. I didn’t want it to end. Although in many ways a very different story, I was reminded at times of Mark Haddon’s The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time. The Sound of Turquoise is written with great simplicity and clarity, whilst telling a many layered story of migration and its repercussions, spanning the period from 1904 to the 1990s. This is an absolutely must read in the New Year. Gill Gregory’s story rings very true.'
Jan Jaggard, Events Manager, Waterstone’s Bridport
'A powerful and haunting tale of migration which maps and explores the ways in which trauma continues to resonate through the generations. As a child of migrants from Poland and Croatia, The Sound of Turquoise resonated for me on many levels. The Sound of Turquoise is a beautiful and very dramatic story of the past told from the vantage point of the present. Here is a compelling tale of our times.'
Greg Kucich, author of Nineteenth-Century Worlds: global formations past and present
