CLAIRE OSHETSKY, THE NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
"The stories in this Irish author's new book are about loss, death, the inevitability of grief, the indignities of age and the way a life can suddenly slide into the abyss. It could have been very grim going, but MacLaverty writes with such compassion that his stories never feel bleak; they feel humane. They feel hopeful ... There is humor in these stories, too ... The continuous encounters with such exquisite impressions immerse you in each narrative, leaving you vulnerable to its emotional punch. Blank Pages may explore some of life's darkest passages, but they feel true as only fiction can, and are never overcome by the darkness."
