In exploring the connections between faith and imagination, art and redemption, religion and science in an intelligent, unusual but very readable way, she manages to touch something buried deep in all of us. It gives her work a quietly compelling quality.' Peter Stanford, Independent 'Kindred spirits and soul mates are at the heart of Salley Vickers' new novel set in a South Coast psychiatric institution and in Rome!This is a fine and multi-layered novel which suggests that suffering is necessary and that opportunities for happiness should be taken whenever offered.' Daily Mail 'Compelling.' Alex Clark, Observer 'Ferociously readable.' Jane Shilling, Sunday Telegraph 'Love and pain, death and life, self knowledge and insensibility -- all these big, vital themes converge in this moving, utterly engrossing novel.' Guardian 'The lives of the characters in this gently absorbing novel continue to resonate with the failures, possibilities, regrets and redemptions -- consoled and mirrored by art -- that we all endure.' Carol Ann Duffy, Telegraph 'The evocation of place, and the pervading sense of sadness, are skilfully created, and the flawed humanity and depth of feeling of the characters are compelling.' Times Literary Supplement 'The writing is so good and the structure so skilful that she manages to make the delicate and difficult notions vivid. Her territory is the faultline along which memories of loss are experienced by an individual both as integral to their identity and as constraints on their engagement with the present. This may be true of a great deal of fiction, but it is rare for a novel to present it so directly and with such success.' John de Falbe, Spectator 'Aborbing, intellectual!enjoyable.' The Tablet (Novel of the Week) 'Vickers's astute descriptions of jealousy, passion and grief shift seamlessly from one character to another in the present without faltering!In her experienced hands the characters are complex without being contrived.' Time Out 'This slow burning novel wraps itself around you, while questioning the nature of love and the redemptive power if art.' Woman and Home '"The Other Side of You" is a brave and unusual book, a gripping read that offers the tantalisations and rewards of a whodunit.' Literary Review
Sunday Times
"Vickers writes elegantly but romantically about the process of analysis ... a good story, neatly and absorbingly told."
