A vivid and engrossing novel in which an eccentric and embittered old woman and her idealistic American grandson struggle to forge a relationship in a city ripped apart by civil war.
Editorial Review
'Grandmother Wolf contains much of the stuff of the fast-paced action thriller, but Tyrrell shapes her combustible material into a quiet study of what brutality is and does, and how it may be survived...[a] finely wrought, slow-burning book.' -- Sheena Joughin TLS 'GRANDMOTHER WOLF also boasts robust characters, and examines blood ties, loyalty and love...Twists in the plot keep the reader surprised, and Tyrrell's strength lies in characters who embrace the moral expediencies of war.' -- Marianne Brace INDEPENDENT (11.8.05) 'Tyrrell works her symbolism densely, and it is one of the virtues of her writing that this is so unobtrusive. Reading her book is like entering Madeleine's house, down its dark alleyway and through the ruined cinema, where images echo and what is revealed is all the more haunting for being viewed obliquely.' -- Anna Vaux SPECTATOR
