Critics Review
[A] lively, tender tale … In her zingy new novel [Solomons] gives the Mona Lisa … power, casting her as the fanciful narrator of her own story * The Times *Solomons’ prose is lyrical and her detail immense. No longer can I look at the Mona Lisa without hearing her. But more, now I know her * Press Association *A wonderfully written story of art, but also of obsession, friendship and love - I absolutely adored this novel – Jillian Cantor, author of The Lost Letter and In Another TimeOh, my god, I love this book! Extraordinarily inventive, a beautifully written, literary tour-de-force - a delicious historical and artistic feast – John Ironmonger, author of Not Forgetting the WhaleA vividly beautiful tribute * Woman’s Own Magazine *History buffs will find much to enjoy… moreover her writing is melodic, as precise as the brushstrokes on a Renaissance painting * Jewish Chronicle *
