Recenzii

"A gripping page-turner filled with surprises, shocks and deep psychological insight... Intelligent, absorbing and most enjoyable" Independent on Sunday "Utterly gripping reading... You are in for a treat" Literary Review "DJ Taylor creates characters who have dynamic spirit and capture the imagination, while the story has the tension of a thriller, the sensitivity of a romance and the wit of an idiosyncratic adventure" Easy Living "Ambitious and immensely accomplished ... above all a meditation on selfhood and memory" Guardian "A highly accomplished novel. It is engrossingly plotted, and its depiction of the vibrant decade leading to the 1929 Crash offers an interesting parallel to our own times" -- Simon Humphreys Mail on Sunday

A page-turner of the highest order. A powerful contribution to the changing practice of historical fiction. --Philippa Gregory
