Recenzje

'A beautifully crafted novel' Guardian

'There are very few novels that not only bristle with ideas but leave you asking questions about those ideas, again and again, your world turned upside down. Mantel has managed to do this.' Sunday Times

'The best book she's written ... She writes about punishing subjects so freshly it is as if they had never been written about before.' Observer

'It has the tension of a first-rate thriller and the breadth of a family saga ... Its compassion and its intellectual energy mark her as the novelist of her generation who will achieve a lasting greatness.' Literary Review

'A complex and highly intelligent portrayal of injustice, bereavement and the loss of faith ... Hilary Mantel has created that rare thing, a page-turner with a profound moral dimension.' Daily Telegraph

'A work of exquisite craftsmanship that asks enormous questions.' Independent
