Revue de presse :
"A daring, colorful novel... Desai is a superb observer of the human race" (New York Times)
"One of the best English novelists writing in English" (Independent)
"Hugo Baumgartner, the central character of Anita Desai's dazzling novel, is a wandering Jew all his life. From the agonising scenes of his childhood in pre-war Berlin, through his spell in business in Calcutta and then Bombay, he simply does not belong. Too dark for Hitler's society, he is too fair for India; he remains a firanghi, a foreigner, whatever he goes" (Daily Telegraph)
"Beautifully observed... Recovers a lost slice of history in its portrayal of a wounded survivor" (Observer)
"Cleverly constructed, and full of sharp perceptions about human nature under the skin, whatever the colour" (The Times)
