Recenzii

Utterly compelling...Cousinsis a remarkable book about the strange tact and terrors of family life and the histories that haunt it
Vickers has a formidable knack for laying open the human heart... a layered family drama
Each distinct voice in this complex pattern of relationships is presented with deep empathy and clarity, so that you feel a real three-dimensional quality in the characters. The most painful ethical dilemmas are laid out with compassion and without manipulation. A serious, mature book that is also compellingly enjoyable
Awonderfulbook. Salley Vickers spins a spellbinding account of a family in distress
A story of secrets, lies and history is elegantly handled... She lays bare the inner workings of one family, possibly every family, with an often disconcerting clarity
If you're a fan of Marilynne Robinson (the Pulitzer-prize winning author ofGilead),you'll love this...a dark and gritty read
No one can dig down into the shrouded recesses of the human heart quite as forensically as Vickers
This is a highly charged novel you'll find hard to put down...The novel raises important issues about motherhood and family connections, and examines the survivor's guilt felt by many of the characters that helps to drive the painful resolution
Vickers ponders undercurrents that swirl down the ages...Vickers commitment to the realism required by fictional memoir...a fascinating exploration of the often equivocal and always cryptic nature of family love
A psychologically acute case study
A story of a family rocked by tragedy
One of our best women writers...Cousins is a towering tale of three generations of the Tye family, spanning 70 years
Salley Vickers sees with a clear eye and writes with a light hand. She's a presence worth cherishing
Absorbing, subtle and utterly joyous
A magical and at times sinister story about love, loss, secrets and forgiveness
Beautifully and brilliantly controlled. A triumph
