The Tortoise And The Hare: VMC

Autor Elizabeth Jenkins Introducere de Hilary Mantel
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 aug 2011

* This exquisite novel tells a love story with a difference. * 'One of my favourite classics' Carmen Callil

And to Imogen's increasing disbelief, she may be succeeding. 'A subtle and beautiful book ...Very few authors combine her acute psychological insight with her grace and style. There is plenty of life in the modern novel, plenty of authors who will shock and amaze you - but who will put on the page a beautiful sentence, a sentence you will want to read twice?' Hilary Mantel, Sunday Times

Recenzii

As smooth and seductive as a bowl of cream
The perfection of its tone and prose is matched by an anguished wit
My best book of almost all time is The Tortoise and the Hare by Elizabeth Jenkins . . . wonderfully sinister, so enchantingly written and so sad. Everyone should read it
One of my favourite classics. Elegant and ironic, its continuing charm lies in its quirky and enigmatic love story which becomes more beguiling with each re-reading
Deliciously subtle . . . A lost world of tweeds and twin-sets . . . a classic novel of the fifties
A subtle and beautiful book ... Very few authors combine her acute psychological insight with her grace and style. There is plenty of life in the modern novel, plenty of authors who will shock and amaze you - but who will put on the page a beautiful sentence, a sentence you will want to read twice?
