A poetic creation that celebrates everything that might have been if things had gone differently

With this book, Eshkol Nevo attains maturity and becomes one of the best writers we have

A remarkably accomplished novel

In The Tusk That Did the Damage, James grounds a moral investigation in fallible human (and animal) emotionality: her prose is simple and beautiful, and her characters, both human and pachyderm, are lovingly rendered.

James is such a talented author; she manages to bring these disparate viewpoints together forming a meaningful narrative and an engrossing story culminating in an elegant ending

A novel of great moral intensity, with the pacing of a thriller. Everyone is implicated. Everyone is righteous. Tania James’ gift, her genius, is to turn this scenario into an occasion for grace.

This narrative braiding makes the book nearly impossible to put down. And especially given the cross-cultural, cross-species scope of James’s novel, the technique gets closer to how such events take place in our world...enthralling

[An] intriguing, tightly plotted story

[A] layered, affecting novel

Told in a language that is both lyrical and stark The Tusk that Did the Damage should win Tania James praise and laurels from those readers who long for a more penetrating look at environmental issues and the moral questions which accompany them’.
