Zitat

"What may, at first, seem to be an insurmountable undertaking is actually an easy to read, intriguing adventure of music and spirituality, all the more important due to its historic importance as a piece of social commentary on early 1930s Britain and Europe."--Bruce Stringer, New Dawn, July 2013
