Recenzii

'A stunning work'
'A wonderfully unfettered, ample novel. One that celebrates voice, personality and feeling when so much fiction avoids those rewarding characteristics'
'That Night has universal appeal ... there is a depth of feeling here which is beautifully - and seriously - realised'
'The author's perceptions of suburban life have a rich detail of the quality of a Cheever or an Updike'
