Quote of the Day
Carcanet has always been the place to look for considerations of purely literary and intellectual merit. Its list relies on the vision and the faith and the energy of people who care about books, and values. It is thus as rare as it is invaluable.

Review of 'Ethiopia Boy' - Mark Sanderson, Seven (Supp to The Sunday Telegraph, 24th February 2013
Chris Beckett relives his exotic Sixties childhood in Ethiopia Boy. Colourful incantations evoke the sights and sounds and above all the food of the East African nation: 'Staring eggs, long stick- / tooth shreds of goat, gooey / angel peas and half-bean kikwot' ('Wot?'). Wot, a stew, makes up part of the national dish.
