Rezensionen

'Sex and death meet again in Tracy Chevalier's marvellous evocation of Edwardian England' Daily Mail

'Cleverly atmospheric' Sunday Telegraph

'The author's grip on the reader is as powerful as in her first novel. It is almost impossible to break off reading this driving narrative' Independent

'A master stylist in the making' Boston Globe

'Writing about the past - especially this much written-about period - has its pitfalls, but Chevalier has triumphantly avoided them. The result is a novel that shows both the strangeness of the world as it was and its closeness to our own time' The Times
