That Beautiful Atlantic Waltz Signed Edition

That Beautiful Atlantic Waltz is a quiet marvel, a rich and gentle book of small moments, large lives and hidden miracles. With real skill and restraint, Tallack shows characters living with dignity and wit and no small courage, faced with the vagaries of fate -- MARTIN MACINNES
At once both heart-throbbingly beautiful and deeply contemplative, both deftly sparing and expertly evocative . . . An entrancing, enthralling and enriching read from start to finish - I savoured every moment and morsel of it -- MICHAEL PEDERSEN
A novel of quiet elegance and emotional intelligence, great delicacy and deceptive simplicity. Its story of grief, redemption and an unlikely friendship left me longing for the quick skies and luminous seas of Shetland -- GAVIN FRANCIS
Malachy Tallack is working at the very top of his game as a novelist. This lovely book is beautifully put together, with perfect economy - the language is clear, sparse and beautiful, not a word wasted. In quickly but expertly drawn strokes, the story of a life lived unremarkably but no less meaningfully for that, is illustrated with perfect clarity and heartbreaking poignancy. A tiny shining gem of a thing -- KIRSTIN INNES
As an islander and a songwriter, it seems to me that both, when done well, are about a kind of truth. About finding one correct note after the other. And in this beautiful book, and in Cautious Jack, Malachy Tallack does it for us over and over again. A life portrait that proves each person is an island themselves, surrounded by the notes of the Atlantic -- COLIN MACINTYRE
I lingered with each page, sinking into the quiet tenderness of the writing, the spray of sea and wind . . . A soulful, subtle beauty of a book -- KATE MOLLESON
A deeply kind and unhurried book, whose quiet affection for the awkward, lonesome Jack and the Shetland home he's never left just sings off the page. A love letter to country music too, and the emotional labour that songs do to keep us afloat and map the arc of our tiny beautiful lives -- KARINE POLWART
This is a beautiful and tender novel, quietly profound and full of heart and longing -- DOUG JOHNSTONE
An evocative, enchanting, unique modern island fable -- RODDY WOOMBLE
Praise for The Valley in the Centre of the World: A moving, authentic novel of the Scottish islands in the twenty-first century -- AMY LIPTROT
