'Vivid, fresh and utterly unsentimental...Calthorpe's own experience of factory and office work provides The Dyehouse with many authentic touches (including much detail about the dyeing process) but that is not what generates this novel's compelling power. What is so remarkable is how it captures and presents a microcosmic world, in which the human elements are all parts of a moving whole: the brutal economy of manual labor, where workers are kept barely above the poverty line, where there is almost no chance of escape, improvement, education, promotion. Yet the focus is always on the personal, the individual.'--Sydney Morning Herald
