'One of the finest ever novels by an Irish writer' John Waters, Magill Set in the countryside of western Ireland, In the Forest centres on unwitting victims for a radiant young woman, her young son and a trusting priest, all despatched to the wilderness of a young man's unbridled, deranged fantasies. Edna O'Brien's riveting, frightening and brilliantly told new novel reminds us that anything can happen when protection isn't afforded to either perpetrator or victim . . . 'A savage portrait of desolation and rage, brilliantly told, truly shocking' Sunday Independent
'Brave, sensitive, beautifully written' Sunday Tribune
