Recenzii

A marvellous novel about forbidden passions
An intensely gripping book...written so seductively that some passages sing out from the page, like music for the eyes
A hugely involving story which often stops you in your tracks with the beauty of its writing
An electrifying and original talent, a writer whose style is characterized by a lyrical, dreamy intensity
