“Comyns’s world is weird and wonderful. Tragic, comic and completely bonkers all in one, I’d go as far as to call her something of a neglected genius.” —Lucy Scholes, The Guardian
“Comyns has a pictorial eye, and though she wrote stories from a young age, she originally thought of herself as a sculptor and painter…[her] wild but exact style is always instantly recognizable, a mix of looseness and compression.” —Jé Wilson, The New York Review of Books
“I’d like also to recommend The Vet’s Daughter by Barbara Comyns, which hit me like a dangerous drug earlier this year: one of the best books I’ve ever read.” –Wesley Stace, The Believer
