When They Lay Bare
'An excellent novel, which establishes and sustains a fine weave of different narrative voices with a strong sense of rootedness in local terrain and myth.The device of nourishing a contemporary story from the Borders ballads,"Twa Corbies" and "Barbara Allen", could have resulted in a mere technical exercise. In Greig's hands, however, it adds the iron to the soul of what might have otherwise amounted to little more than a relationship story. A very impressive work which sends me back to the author's previous novels.'
