‘Enthralling ... It's a skilled piece of writing, a jigsaw narrative that leaps from one character to another with apparent seamlessness'
‘A spectacular read ... Full of suspense, exciting and unpredictable, this is a novel that keeps you guessing until the end' (Viv Groskop)
‘Her books are so warm, so overflowing with love and affection, that when you've finished reading one your first inclination is to embrace it' (Patrick Ness)
‘Patchett's mastery means there are no slips on the ice for her readers ... It is a long time since I have read such a delicately nuanced novel, where the overall pleasure lies simply in reading an award-winning writer at the top of her game'
Patchett’s novels are remarkable for their generosity of spirit and deep sympathy for their characters … Covering issues of race and class, nurture and nature, Run is a touching exploration of America’s melting pot
Humane and sympathetic … All the magic is in the way Patchett enables us to enter the lives of this group of people and to appreciate the kinship that runs through their society
Deeply moving and absorbing … Patchett has once again written an intelligent, thoughtful novel that oozes emotional intensity. She is the kind of storyteller who makes the reader sad to come to the last page
Patchett tells this complex story of inheritance and loss with accomplished ease (Helen Dunmore)
Engaging, touching and satisfying
In deftly plotted, graceful prose, Patchett reflects on the binds of both family and community
A gentle, finely observed book that stays with you long after you have finished it
Run is a novel with timeless concerns at its heart – class and belonging, parenthood and love ... The book is lovely to read and is satisfyingly bold in its attempt to say something patient and true about family (Andrew O'Hagan)
