Book Reviews
- Geras has an amazing creativity. She invents and executes the most original plots which she fleshes out with characters so convincing that one feels that one knows them.
Jane Baker
- There are many pleasures in this wonderfully warm and entertaining novel - the subtle, deep exploration of character, a story superlatively well told, and the rich, fun details.
Sophie Masson
- The reader will sink into Adele Geras’s sensuous descriptions. As ever, the well-observed characters live warmly on the pages, which I couldn’t help but keep turning.
