`With her signature clipped and measured prose, National Book Award winner Tuck's new novel is elegant, raw, and powerful.' * Kirkus reviews, starred review *
`Sisters slices straight to the heart of a marriage burdened by infidelity and obsession. It's powerful and insightful, recounted in an elegantly wistful style that makes the sudden climax all the more impactful. Plenty of style, and despite its slimness, a lot of substance.' * Written by Sime *
`A slow unravelling ... Unsettling.' -- Age
`A short yet sharp book ... As far as quick, nuanced reads go about marriage, jealousy and love, this seems unsurpassed and quite simply, lovely.' -- AU Review

`It took me a mere ninety minutes to read Lily Tuck's Sisters which might lead you to think it's a slight, inconsequential piece of fiction, but that's far from the case. A sharp psychological study of obsession with a neat sting in its tail, it's completely riveting.' * A Life in Books *
`Tuck's latest work is understated, seemingly simplistic, but full of innuendo, of the complexities of human relationships.' * Otago Daily Times *
