Media Reviews
Her most atmospheric book . . . very eerie and richly descriptive. Daily Telegraph (London)
Bowen has flashes of the authentic Jamesian subtlety . . . [and] her own disturbing, searching presentation of complex human relationships. . . . Strikingly terse and original. The Christian Science Monitor
A compelling story, inspired with a deep insight into human nature. Times Literary Supplement (London)
The tenderest book she has written. . . . Such a beautiful piece of work that while you are reading it, it is as if a picture you were watching came to life. . . . A magical performance. --The New Republic
