"Wood Green deals with the complex business of forming and sustaining various kinds of relationships…with warmth, wit and intelligence…Merciless, unpredictable, and subversive…Wood Green is certainly a complex imaginative work, but it is also accessible…Wood Green's blurb prepares us for 'an unsuspected plot twist', but its denouement is more than just surprising: with it, Rabin deftly entwines the opposing literary values that his novel entertains, and conjures a climax of uncommon resonance and ambiguity." - Sydney Review of Books
