‘A fascinating read ... the characters are pithily described and were fully alive, the places likewise. I was in the virgin forests and the plunging rivers; I was on the filthy beach of Mackinac; in the gross tavern and muddied, choleric streets of York’ - Tim Pears ‘The Voyageur is an intimate adventure across a vast canvas. Based on a fascinating historical starting point, Carlucci's empathetic novel has much to say about the delight and the shame that spring from something we all have in common: the human body’ - Aliya Whiteley

'The Voyageur is a marvellous work of art, brutal, tender and deeply moving. It has many of the qualities of Cormac McCarthy at his ferocious best, without the excesses of the late American master. The narrative is set in history, but the novel triumphantly surpasses the constrictions of a genre label’ - John Banville ‘A fascinating read ... the characters are pithily described and were fully alive, the places likewise.
