Critics Review

This brilliant novel is infused with empathy and humour. I adored it.– Irish Examiner

A delightful, moving, utterly believable family saga

- Kate Saunders, The Times

A tender, lyrical novel of family and fame - Sunday Express

Moving and engaging, it’s a captivating story that stays with you.

- Book of the Month, Choice

Natasha Solomons brings her characters to life with sympathy and understanding for their flaws and shortcomings … a profound story of love, loss and reconciliation - Lady

Solomons could make a bin sound beautiful; her writing is divine, and I was pleased to see a return to the style of her earlier work, The Novel in the Viola. There is an innocence about her novels which is simply lovely and a welcome foil to the outside world. Her turns of phrases are startlingly unique, comparing magnolia flowers to “fat, tarty girls in ball gowns” and memories to “dandelion clocks in the wind”. - We Love This Book
