A propos du livre

Revue de presse

“Cusk has a gift for articulating fluid, unsettling emotions just beneath the surface of consciousness.” (Entertainment Weekly)

“Insightful...perceptively drawn...poignant, evocative and meant to be savored.” (Booklist)

“Gorgeous, languorous writing.” (Publishers Weekly)

“Impressively written.” (Marie Claire (UK))

“If great fiction puts into words something about ourselves that we didn’t know we knew, this is it.” (Daily Mail (London))

“Sharp observation of character, vivid imagistic descriptions.” (Independent on Sunday)

“You want to gasp with the shock of recognition at a rarely articulated thought delivered with a visceral punch.” (Independent Magazine)

“A lovely book.” (Irish Independent)

“[Cusk’s] intelligence and emotional honesty give a sense of having experienced, rather than read, this book...extraordinary.” (People)
