Media Reviews
Beautifully written and extraordinarily moving * Sunday Times *
Moving and profound... Perfectly constructed * Times *
He has reaffirmed the importance of character in the novel; his Anna and Hartmann are as real, as moving and convincing as Anna Karenina and Vronsky... It is a novel to cherish and delight in * Scotsman *
A novel of rare intelligence and passion * Mail on Sunday *
An unusual and moving novel in which courage and abnegation are pitted against illicit but total love...a poised and well-judged work * Financial Times *
