Oblivion Day book cover
OBLIVION

John Bayley
The most fulfilled and at the same time the most mysterious of her novels.

Daily Mail
Elizabeth Buchan
A cool and sophisticated meditation on the wreckage left by grief.

Cosmopolitan
Hart presents her uncomforting philosophy with a spare eloquence that is utterly compelling.

New Woman
Sophisticated and compelling.

San Francisco Chronicle
Once again, Hart shows her masterful ability to convey the complexity of human emotions.

Chicago Tribune
Stylish and remarkably assured..an ambitious mix of literary criticism, social commentary, romance and playwriting, a worm's nest of convoluted relationships ...Oblivion is a ghost story of sorts, concerning grief and loss.

Sunday Telegraph
The novels of Josephine Hart are works of and about intense passion: they deal with people and feelings that are mad, bad or dangerous to know.

Harpers & Queen
Hart confronts loss, remembrance, death and oblivion in deceptively simple and elegant prose.
