Review:
"Few writers give me such consistent pleasure" (Zadie Smith)
"She has such great psychological insights into human beings, which is rare. She is one of the best fiction writers writing today" (Chimamanda Ngozie Adichie)
"As discrete entities, Hadley’s short stories are intense, miniature novels in themselves; bound together in a novel, they become quietly brilliant, offering an incisive exploration into how life’s individuals episodes add up to a meaningful whole." (Francesca Angelini Sunday Times)
"Hadley is a writer of exceptional intelligence and skill and, for all the apparent conventionality of her vision, hers is a subtly subversive talent." (Edmund Gordon Observer)
"There is something reassuring yet deliciously unexpected about a Tessa Hadley novel." (Helen Brown Daily Telegraph)
