Recenzii
“A heartbreaking story of love and loss that will twist readers up in knots. . . Essential for any foreign literature or women's fiction collection.”
—Library Journal
“Like Katherine Pancol, Agnès Martin-Lugand has…the gift of making us love a charming yet flawed heroine.”
—ElleFrance
“Martin-Lugand's sparse but emotionally forceful style, aided by Smith's translation from the original French, catches the sweeter moments between two people embittered by loss.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Profoundly
moving
and
expertly
told,
Happy
People
confronts
life's
most
nightmarish
tragedy
with
an
unblinking
examination.
Diane's
journey
to
find
meaning
again
is
at
once
charming
and
heartbreaking,
and
I
found
myself
pulling
for
her
to
seek
out
her
next
experience
of
love.
The
wisdom
and
magic
in
these
pages
will
linger
long
after
the
book
is
closed.”

“This is a powerful story of love and loss and how life moves forward often of its own accord. Both tearful and uplifting this is an exquisite story of re-growth and renewal after tragedy.”
-Blogcritics.org
“This is a sensitive and poignant novel…A book that is read (almost) in one go, it leaves an impression on the heart. A great life lesson.”
—Femmes Magazine, Luxembourg
“The energy that Agnès Martin-Lugand is able to convey with this storm is enormous. This is one roller-coaster of a book, but I loved every moment of it. . . Anyone who has ever experienced a feeling of any kind, ever, will enjoy this novel.”
—San Francisco Book Review
