From one of Granta's Best Young British Novelists comes a stunningly insightful, emotionally powerful novel about an outsider haunted by an inescapable past: a story of loneliness and survival, guilt and loss, and the energy of forgiveness. Jake Whyte is living on her own within an old farmhouse on the craggy British island, a place of ceaseless rains and battering winds. Her disobedient collie, Dog, and a flock of sheep are her sole companions, which is how she wanted it to be. But every few nights something - or someone - picks off one of the sheep and sounds a new deep pulse of terror. You will discover foxes in the woods, a strange boy and a strange man, rumors of an obscure, formidable beast.... And there is also Jake's past - hidden a large number of miles away and years back, held in the silences about her family and the scars that stripe her back - a past that threatens to break into the present. With exceptional artistry and empathy, All the Birds, Singing reveals an isolated life in every its struggles and stubborn hopes, unexpected beauty, and hard-won redemption.
