Rezensionen
A New York Times: "18 New Works of Fiction to Read This Spring" A Vogue: "The Best Books of 2022 So Far" A CrimeReads' "Most Anticipated Crime Fiction of 2022" A BookPage's "Most Anticipated Fiction of 2022"? A Popsugar's "Best New Book Release" An EW.COM's "16 Novels We're Excited For This Summer" -

"Hooray! Sarai Walker has done it again. With The Cherry Robbers she upends the Gothic ghost story with a fiery feminist zeal." - Maria Semple, bestselling author of Where'd You Go, Bernadette and Today Will Be Different

"Oh, I love Sarai Walker's The Cherry Robbers! The Chapel sisters, of a fictional gun manufacturing fortune, grow up in a house that looks like a wedding cake. But each of them is fated to die on their wedding night, a multi-generational curse that seems to set free only those women who put art above marriage. A twisted take on the artist's coming-of-age story, The Cherry Robbers tackles deep questions about marriage, sexuality, familial loyalty, guns and the artist's life-a witty, delicious, demented joyride." - Susan Scarf Merrell, author of Shirley, now a major motion picture

"Walker's take on the classic Gothic tale fairly shimmers, titillating with a heady concoction of terror and desire, frothy with fever-pitched emotions, and dark with smothering melancholy and macabre spectres." - Booklist (starred review)

"Walker gives us indelible descriptions of flowers, foods, and fabrics as we coexist with the vivid Chapel sisters, but inside the lush exterior, the novel thrums with violence, oppression, and blood. This fierce feminist tale hit me in the heart and hasn't let me go." - Stacey Swann, author of Olympus, Texas

"Delightfully eerie...This uncanny tale of dark origins shines brightly." - Publishers Weekly

"This gorgeously written and all-consuming gothic explores feminism and sexuality and left me more than a little heartbroken." - Buzzfeed

"Walker's long-anticipated sophomore novel is a spooky departure from the feminist anarchy of 'Dietland,' but a welcome one that speaks to the author's range." - WBUR Boston

"In 2017 New Mexico, famed artist Sylvia Wren lives her life in virtual seclusion, but her true identity is about to be exposed by a determined journalist. So begins Sarai Walker's sharp, gothic tale "The Cherry Robbers." - Popsugar

"The story takes one interesting new turn after another, gathering into a heady mix of gothic fiction and incisive art thriller." - CrimeReads

"A book one doesn't want to put down." - Sarah Jessica Parker
