What We Say: "The Bee Sting tells the engrossing saga of the Barnes family through the shifting lenses of mum Imelda, dad Dickie, and their children Cass and PJ. Murray’s mastery at revealing layer upon layer of the story through the four characters’ perspectives results in a story that will hook you in and stay with you long after you finish." – Katie Teehan

What They Say: “A tragicomic triumph, you won't read a sadder, truer, funnier novel this year” – Guardian
