Critics Review

Beautiful and sad * Metro *Compelling, passionate, tragic * Marie Claire *Powerful and affecting, crowded with the details of lives led and miseries inflicted * Sunday Times *There are characters whose fate we care about, and a profoundly moving love story threaded between the tenacity of family and the monstrous grind of war. One that cries for you to linger over page by enthralling page – Simon Schama * Financial Times *Gripping, moving * TLS *Stunning, gracefully written, altogether remarkable * LA Times *A sweeping epic, a good old-fashioned page-turner * Daily Mail *
