Critics Review

Sittenfeld is a clever and refreshing writer… Likeable and compelling… Witty and astute… The result is impressive but most of all enjoyable

“Sittenfeld is a clever and refreshing writer… Likeable and compelling… Witty and astute… The result is impressive but most of all enjoyable” The Sunday Times “Good-humoured, deeply engaging… Brilliant… Gratifying and elucidating” Guardian “Delightful… Entertaining and thought-provoking… Sittenfeld’s cut-glass prose and razor-sharp observations take her work to another level” Observer “Funny and painfully true… Closing it for the last time, you feel like you’re losing a new best friend” Marie Claire “Razor-sharp… Sittenfeld’s prose, which has that elusive ability to seduce you without you ever noticing The writing, is a joy to read, and her characters a joy to spend time with” Time Out
