Bottomless River reader reviews

(Now available as a Free download. See bottom)

I have been meaning to write to say very sincerely how moved I was by "Bottomless River" and equally impressed by it - I thought it was such a sad and deeply interesting story and I thought you evoked it quite beautifully. – Ursula Dubosarsky, multi-award winning author.

I have to say I barely could stop each time my train ride journey came to an end. There was just something about that story that made me NEED to keep reading. A fantastic piece of work that you can be very proud of. - Chris

I'm going to be honest and say that as someone with a degree in English literature … I was slightly apprehensive when I picked it up.  Surely, it wouldn't be much good. I didn't put it down until it was finished.  It immersed me completely, made me cry and, most importantly, cast a whole new light on some of those dark corners of life that make us who we are.  … it's one of those rare books that leave you thinking about it from a raw emotional state …  a brilliant piece of literature … – Anon

It just celebrated it's 10th anniversary.

The novella’s author, Anthony J. Langford, comes up with plenty of original similes as he explores guilt and regret. The main character’s inner turmoil seemed so realistic that I thought the writer had to be writing from experience. – Graham

I intend to have a second read!! The characters are great and very relatable… it’s quite remarkable and I love your writing style. -  Mandy 

You are an extremely talented writer and am looking forward to reading more of your work in the future...I get disappointed when a book I enjoy finishes as I just want to keep reading. - Sharon

The idea is excellent - basically a story based on one incident and its effects on a lifetime.  But told very well and succinctly.  - Jean

I found myself very understanding of the main character in terms of thinking and decision-making. It moved me, especially towards the end … A great read! Bottomless River goes on my bookshelf and will always be kept. - Zakieh

It makes you think how one action can change the outcome of the rest of your life. - Ryan

For me it’s a story of loss of innocence and betrayal and to what depths a human being can go to cope with this. I strongly recommend that you purchase this book without delay. – Carolyn
