This is heading off on the first step of it's journey in a couple of 
weeks. It's starting in the UK but will be travelling 
internationally. 

Here's the review from The Times: 

'In the bleak setting of a half-derelict hospital for the very old, 
Molloy, an ageing doctor, keeps watch with the dying. .. in holding 
the hands and wiping the faces of the dying, he is making amends for 
the fact that his mother died alone. Hill then draws us in another 
layer, and we follow the life story of Molloy's mother, Flora. Grave, 
fiercely independent yet vulnerable, her character is formed by a 
series of bereavements and bitter disappointments. .. Skilfully 
structured, seamlessly blending past and present. .. Hill's lean, 
sharp prose and consistently detached tone creat a severe and rather 
beautiful book. .. that flows silkily off the page'. 

Anyone else interested? Please PM / email me as I'm not very good at 
remembering to check back on here!
