Rezensionen
A Boston Globe bestseller -

"Ms. Demeanor is a complete and utter delight. Of course it is. What Elinor Lipman novel isn't?" - Richard Russo, author of Empire Falls and Chances Are...

"Who knew house arrest could be sexy and fun? Not me, at least not until I read Ms. Demeanor. Written with Elinor Lipman's signature wit and charm, this breezy, engrossing novel tells the story of two people who make the most of their shared confinement." - Tom Perrotta, author of Election, The Leftovers, and Tracy Flick Can't Win

"When a neighbor's complaint about consensual al fresco sex turns into house arrest and a suspended legal license, Jane's recipe for survival involves cooking for another home-arrested tenant (could this be a match made in confinement?) while trying to figure out the whys and hows of her mysterious accuser. Filled with food, family, romance and intrigue, Lipman's novel cooks up a bounty of delights as sparkling as prosecco and as deeply satisfying and delicious as a five-star meal." - Caroline Leavitt, author of Cruel Beautiful World and With or Without You

"Elinor Lipman's Ms. Demeanor features a wry and resourceful heroine who reinvents herself as a Tik Tok chef after her career as an attorney is sidelined because of a public indiscretion. Lipman, a master chef of literary romantic comedy, cooks up a deliciously entertaining story whose ingredients include wit, sass, sex, and social satire. Ms. Demeanor is Lipman's fourteenth novel and one of her best." - Wally Lamb, author of She's Come Undone and I Know This Much Is True

"Elinor Lipman, she of the lightest touch and quickest wit, has written a novel to delight even the weariest, wariest soul of our times. Art, food, real estate - New York City rises enthusiastically to embrace the reader. And the characters rise to embrace each other. Lockdowns morph into charming English villages, and love, as it must, wins out. An enchantment I, for one, really needed." - Cathleen Schine, author of The Three Weissmanns of Westport and The Grammarians

"Lipman is an inspired alchemist who converts serious subject into humor."
- New York Times Book Review
