Contemporary, mystical, timeless . . . The story is so specific, yet it speaks of all love. When I finished The Foghorn Echoes, I felt that I had read a fiction which was unquestionably, undeniably true -- LEMN SISSAY [ A] sweeping and mesmerising story that spans time and mortal space so expertly and elegantly. This is a beautiful novel, written by a once hurt child and loved and deeply admired by another, me -- ALAN CUMMING Powerful and compassionate -- Lucy Popescu * * The Observer * * The Foghorn Echoes is, fundamentally, an epic: the story of two men, two cities, and between them, love and a war * * Guernica * * Hussam and Wassim will live on in your heart long after the last page. A story of a country torn apart by war and hearts broken by wars within -- DAMIAN BARR I've read many stories about love and war. Few have moved me this much. The Foghorn Echoes is marvellous: subtle but dramatic, tender but urgent, and beautifully written. I'll be thinking about it for a very long time -- DINA NAYERI The Foghorn Echoes bristles. It burns bright . . . This novel is a tender and impassioned love story for a country, for a people, and for all those who refuse to disappear quietly into the land of the forgotten -- MAAZA MENGISTE A deeply moving book about conflict both internal and external, the ways in which cold accidents - of birth, of place, of time - can leave a human being at war with their own desires, their own sense of self. Danny Ramadan is a gifted, sensitive excavator of the things that break people and put them back together . . . he has created a world of immense sensory and emotional precision, at once true in its living details and yet electric with the presence of ghosts -- OMAR EL AKKAD A heartfelt, compelling tale that should be added on bookshelves everywhere -- ELIAS JAHSHAN Protest, civil war and refugee politics hum in the novel's background, but they are not its heartbeat. Instead, Ramadan focuses on love, loss and identity amidst the ruins * * NB Magazine * *
