''Carol Chandler''s writing subtly compels you into a "dark wood" of her characters'' "niggling restlessness" so you feel you have one foot in ordinary "reality" and one (metaphorical) foot in the dubious illumination of dream/memory/speculation... These are forcefully charged fragments of (dis)connection where glittering surfaces and shadowy, half-accusatory memories and perceptions create a powerful sense of undercurrent. This is rich, liminal prose that keeps you constantly engaged, wanting clarity and resolution in a world of compromised relationships and disturbing self-awareness. Clever, high-tensile paranoia... - David Gilbey
