Rezensionen

'A remarkable novel.' Iris Murdoch, Sunday Times

'A dazzling panorama of the giants of the Left Bank.' New Statesman

'The characters, especially the women, are uninhibited and sometimes predatory. The dialogues are salty, frank and realistic. The characters' amorous adventures are set down with microscopic exactitude.' Guardian

'There are few, a very few, novels from which one comes away with the feeling of having travelled, experienced, learned... such a book is The Mandarins.' Bookman
