Revue de presse :
"Outstanding . . . Margo Lanagan is a writer whose violently sexy reworkings of Grimm have previously been more for teenagers, but her new book stays within the allusive fairy tale tropes and will enthrall readers of 11+. Nothing is predictable in this astonishing novel, which expands on classic tales about selkie brides with unsettling imaginative thoroughness" (Amanda Craig The Times)
"Lanagan's prose is always a joy . . . she shows writing of the highest order: subtle, powerful, poetic" (Marcus Sedgwick Guardian)
"Margo Lanagan’s writing is dangerously beautiful; it knows how to dance, and it knows how to fight" (Mal Peet)
"Powerful, beautiful, dangerous, unsettling, truthful, earthy, challenging, poetic, wonderful, absorbing. I can't recommend it highly enough. Margo Lanagan has a unique, uncompromising and lyrical voice and she brings it to the folk myth of selkies in a soaring journey of passion and pain . . . Read this selkie novel. It's heartstoppingly gorgeous. And you won't find anyone else with a voice like Margo's. Five stars" (The Bookbag)
"Atmospheric, moving and rich in detail." (Fluttering Butterflies)

Rollrock is an isolated, windswept island, where families must wring a living from the stormy seas. But it is also a place of eerie magic, and of wild desire. Down on the beach, the outcast witch of Rollrock casts her spells, and draws mysterious, hauntingly beautiful girls from the waves.
Men are lured to Rollrock from far and wide with the promise of a sea wife - but magic always has its price. These brides do not belong to this world, and one day, the sea will claim them back . . .
From the author of the critically acclaimed Tender Morsels, winner of the World Fantasy Award for Best Novel
