“We are carried along by the sheer force of the writing, by its terse, evocative physicality…Watkins demonstrates a rare gift for the economical, resonant evocation of depths, both psychological and verbal.” —Times Literary Supplement
“Readers will savor the realistic evocations of life at sea and the portrayal of a particular maritime subculture.”
—Publishers Weekly
“"The raw elegance of human experience itself…Dazzlingly rendered…Watkins is an author whose work should be read with great respect.”
—Los Angeles Times
“Paul Watkins has a fine ear…The scenes of shipboard life and the hardships suffered there are especially vivid, and the writing is lyrical without being strained.”
—Wall Street Journal
