Kate Horan and 17 other people liked Garth Jones's review of First Name Second Name:
First Name Second Name by Steve MinOn
"A poignant, spectral migrant’s tale spanning generations.

Steve’s deeply felt tale of otherness, familial bonds and the supernatural make for a peerlessly deft, moving debut."

“It’s one thing to forgive a minor indiscretion after fifteen years of marriage and three children, but to knowingly marry someone who isn’t even faithful to start with? That wouldn’t be pragmatic. It would be insane.”
