“Good art rents a room in your consciousness. Really good art plants roots in your subconscious. Cosmos & Other Stories is a piece of art does this – and also enables you to step out of your rush, rush, dopamine-fueled day and rest happy in a second of time.”
Tony Esmond, Down the Tubes – In Review: Cosmos & Other Stories
“..Cosmos is a wonderful collection of work that we genuinely wish had more in it because what is there is really rather wonderful.”

“A collection of a handful of comics shorts, it’s Hathaway at her economical but profound best; a book that displays that remarkable ability she has to bring us so fully into the lives of her characters with a recognisable emotional resonance.”
