Opis

From the Man Booker Prize-winning author of 'Wolf Hall', a savagely funny tale that revisits the characters from the much-loved 'Every Day is Mother's Day'.

Recenzje

'Savage and funny black humour at its best' Time Out

'The macabre and wonderfully funny plot has as many twists and turns as a well-made thriller' Standard

'Filled with fiendish glee......Lie back and laugh yourself silly: this is the best send-up for a long, long time.' New Statesman

'Hilary Mantel's wit is wonderful and startlingly nasty' Sunday Times

'The farce is edged with constant acuteness about our current social mess and the pleas for charity to begin at home never miss the bull' Observer
