This book! Author Paige Cooper said ‘Bergen's power as a writer pulls like an undertow.' I could not say this more succinctly myself so I'll quote Cooper instead! I couldn't detect a single literary device in Out of Mind, yet rarely am I ever more engrossed in a novel as I was reading this one. The prose was straightforward, reminiscent of Hemingway, yet the narrative held such depth, I found myself enthralled. Bergen is now amongst my favourite authors, and I'm eager to read through his backlist.
