Trade Review
One of those novels you never forget * The Times *
I love this wonderful book... Just read it -- Jo Brand * BBC Radio 4, A Good Read *
One of Hill’s earlier, quieter masterpieces -- Emma Hagestadt * Independent *
Immediately arresting…you come away affected, but there is a quiet, unhurried pace which is, incongruously, a lovely and fitting touch * bookgeeks.co.uk *
