To the Burning City
Heinemann 1991,1992, (UK 1993)

Underrated Alan Gould, unable to write the pretentious, politically correct, thinly textured fiction that wins publicity in Australia, has managed at least to construct a finely crafted and substantial novel, To The Burning City. When temperate retrospects become possible, this will be regarded as one of the most accomplished novels of recent years.In a literary world with less rancour, less institutionalised prejudice, less cowardice, Gould's To The Burning City would be seen as an occasion for pride.
Peter Pierce, The Canberra Times, 1991
