Review:
"In this highly confined setting, Stead creates a busy mini-Europe of petty and poignant crises... This is an excellent place for the Stead novice to begin enjoying her artistry." --Kirkus Starred Review
"How to describe it? It's like a meteorite from Krypton landed on Ozlit's bindi-eye-riddled lawn, greenly glowing. Or perhaps a mosaic of imagined intimacies...Stead is a recording angel of the threadbare European middle class of the postwar years." --Saturday Paper
"This neat little volume will appeal to readers who enjoy historical fiction with a good dose of satire. Classic fiction from an award-winning Australian author." --BookMooch
