What They're Saying
Critics Review
A masterpiece
Now this is a truly wonderful book, about life, love, age, about all of us. I gave it to look at to a 7 year old who sat with her 75 year old grandmother, and both were intent, deeply engaged, the one full of questions, the other searching still for answers. A remarkable and important book! * Michael Morpurgo *Praise for the German edition – :Probably the most beautiful and touching book of the year * Die Presse *A great reading pleasure for the whole family, for all generations. * SRF Literary Club *A very philosophical, unusually beautiful book * rbb zibb *Like a poem about life * einfach.sein *A masterpiece * Berliner Zeitung *A wonderful book about the little and big moments that astonish us in life * Laviva *With my current favorite book Hundred, I spend hours on the sofa learning new things about life. * style *
