‘No matter how duff you are feeling, it would be hard to read this novel and not feel a new woman (or even a new man?) afterwards. Splitting is a shout of triumph about a woman who does more than survive, and its anger is tempered by mirth. Weldon has reinvented herself as a modern Restoration comic. Her story has a seventeenth-century savagery, witty and calculating sexuality.’
Observer
‘Stirs wit and sorrow into a literary cauldron of mischief, power and justice.’
She
“Never before has the idea of having a split personality seemed quite so appealing.”
LITERARY REVIEW
“This is a jewel of a book, sparkling, flawless and precisely faceted. Weldon shows all the confidence and refinement of an artist at the height of her powers.”
CELIA BRAYFIELD, 'Sunday Express'
“No matter how duff you are feeling, it would be hard to read this novel and not feel a new woman (or even a new man?) afterwards. 'Splitting' is a shout of triumph about a woman who does more than survive, and its anger is tempered by mirth. Weldon has reinvented herself as a modern Restoration comic. Her story has a seventeenth-century savagery, witty and calculating sexuality.”
OBSERVER
“Bright, witty, comic and perceptive ... in the great boisterous, picaresque tradition of Fielding, Cervantes, Dickens and John Irving's 'Garp'”
CHICAGO SUN-TIMES
“Ms Weldon reinstates irony to its rightful high place in literature”
JOHN IRVING
“Sexy in a detached, practical sort of way”
SUNDAY INDEPENDENT
“Stirs wit and sorrow in a literary cauldron of mischief, power and justice”
SHE
“Weldon is at her wicked best in 'Splitting'”
