Review:
"Remarkable...a big book that can comprehend the history of a nation, and so many lives, with love" (The Times)
"An exotic vision and a brilliant, impassioned epic" (Vogue)
"Mesmerizing... A novel of force and charm" (Washington Post)
"This is a novel like the novels no one seems to write anymore: thick with plot and bristling with characters who play out their lives over three generations of conflict and reconciliation. A novel to be read for its brilliant craftsmanship and its narrative of inescapable power" (El Pais, Madrid)
"Announcing a truly great read: a novel thick and thrilling, full of fantasy, terror and wit, elaborately crafted yet serious and accurate in its historical and social observations" (Die Welt, Berlin)
