A Sunday Times Best Book of 2025 (so far), Review: The Boy from the Sea

‘Warm, funny, full of lightly worn wisdom and wit. In short, it is a joy . . . the power of Carr’s novel lies in the contrast between its warm hilarity and the cold truths those jokes contain . . . vivid, loving and genuinely funny.’
