Critics Review

We love Trollope’s novels and await each new one with excitement

We love Trollope’s novels and await each new one with excitement * HEAT *
Supremely sure of her material and purpose, compassionate but never sentimental * THE SUNDAY TIMES *
Wonderfully observed and readable * THE TIMES *
Infallibly elegant… All this lies beneath the sparkling, well groomed surface of a novel which could quite easily be read as a light diversion for an idle afternoon. But look more closely and something as grim as Greek tragedy is played out around the cosy family dinner table – Jane Shilling * DAILY TELEGRAPH *
As ever, Trollope writes about family life with wit, intelligence and verve * GUARDIAN *
A poignant tale about a mother watching her children grow up and marry, and her sadness as they drift further away. Joanna’s descriptive writing expresses true wrought emotion and hurt * HEAT REVIEW *
The author’s psychology, as always, is sound, the plotting secure and the pacing brisk and page-turning. Another winner * DAILY MAIL *
Sociologically and psychologically as observant as ever * SPECTATOR *
Book of the Month: An intuitive and sympathetically observed piece of writing * GOOD HOUSEKEEPING *
Trollope writes with customary compassion and humanity in this heartwarming and engaging novel * DAILY EXPRESS *
