Revue de presse

"A visual memoir with beautifully drawn illustrations by Joe Sumner." (Danuta Kean Independent on Sunday)

"Its minute observations and most unsettling moments stayed with me, like a shark tooth kept in a pocket, a souvenir of someone else’s life." (Charlotte Runcie, 4 stars Telegraph)

"It is remarkable how an autobiographical – I stress this – book can enact a movement away from the self and become the repository of so much humility." (Neel Mukherjee Independent)

"Wyld tells the story of her obsession and fascination with the shark, and charts the undercurrents, tensions and joys of family life. Model-maker Joe Sumner’s illustrations, full of tension and grace, are a haunting accompaniment." (Louise Gorrod Simple Things)

"Sumner’s wondrous art is a perfect visual correlative to Wyld’s spare lyricism." (i)
