"The Litten Path, then, can be said to be a coming of age novel. Lawrence emerges from childhood to the violent and uncompromising adult world. He is forced to make choices, does he remain as he is or follow the Litten path out of the village and forge his own destiny? Britain comes of age in the new model of economic liberalism where society goes out the window. Throughout the writing is deceptively subtle. The language flows between the colloquial and literary refusing to get bogged down in either. James Clarke has written a novel in a style that is as memorable as it is unique." - Joe Phelan reviews The Litten Path by James Clarke
