Review:
"An excessively stylish tale about a fatal love triangle in provincial Bohemia..The novel and its afterword form a fascinating study, an erstwhile aesthetic object unravelled into realism and commitment" (Guardian)
"Carter observes her characters with a cool detachment as if they were specimens on a slide..She catches acutely the dying throes of the love generation, when Swinging London had run to seed" (New Society)
"Angela Carter has language at her fingertips" (New Statesman)
"Whatever her subject, Angela Carter writes like a dream - sometimes a nightmare" (Sunday Telegraph)
