“[An] enthralling secret history of the last great rebellion against the Tudor conquest of Ireland…Crowley deftly handles the balance between history and fiction without ever lowering the quality of his excellent prose.”

Praise for John Crowley:
“Crowley is generous, obsessed, fascinating, gripping. Really, I think Crowley is so good that he has left everybody else in the dust.”
— Peter Straub

“Like a magus, John Crowley shares his secrets generously, allowing us to believe that his book is revealing the true and glorious nature of the world and the reader’s own place within it.”
— Village Voice

“[Crowley] transforms the lead of daily life into seriously dazzling artistic gold.”
— Newsday

“Crowley writes so magnificently that only a handful of living writers in English can equal him as a stylist, and most of them are poets…Little, Big seems to me as miraculous as Shakespeare or Lewis Carroll: it is as if the book had always been there, the way Falstaff and Humpty Dumpty were there from the start, and Shakespeare and Carroll found them.”
— Harold Bloom
