Recenzii
"The
Luminariesis
a
true
achievement.
Catton
has
built
a
lively
parody
of
a
19th-century
novel,
and
in
so
doing
created
a
novel
for
the
21st,
something
utterly
new.
The
pages
fly,
the
great
weight
of
the
book
shifting
quickly
from
right
hand
to
left,
a
world
opening
and
closing
in
front
of
us,
the
human
soul
revealed
in
all
its
conflicted
desperation.
I
mean
glory.
And
as
for
the
length,
surely
a
book
this
good
could
never
be
too
long."—Bill
Roorbach,New

Review
"Catton provides descriptions of her characters that are meticulous and precise...The result is a finely wrought fun house of a novel. Enjoy the ride."—Chris Bohjalian,Washington Post
"Irresistible, masterful, compelling...The Luminarieshas a gripping plot that is cleverly unravelled to its satisfying conclusion, a narrative that from the first page asserts that it is firmly in control of where it is taking us...[Catton is] a mistress of plot and pacing..."—The Telegraph(5-star review)
"The type of novel that you will devour only to discover that you can't find anything of equal scope and excitement to read once you have finished...Do yourself a favour and readThe Luminaries."—The Independent
"Note-perfect... [Catton's] authority and verve are so impressive that she can seemingly take us anywhere; each time, we trust her to lead us back ... A remarkable accomplishment."—Globe and Mail
"A very clever, absurdly fun novel that reads like a cross between a locked-room mystery, a spaghetti Western, a game of Sodoku, andEdwin Drood."—New York Magazine
"To say thatThe Luminariesis daringly ambitious in its reach and scope doesn't really do it justice."—The Wall Street Journal
