"Engrossing... engaging." San Francisco Chronicle
"Lively s [novel] maintains the high standard her fans have come to expect. It s another shining winner." The Boston Globe

"To read Penelope Lively's book is like slipping into the finest cashmere: beautifully wonven, fluid and expensive. Once experienced, it is impossible to enjoy inferior materials." The Evening Standard (London)
"The Photograph is Penelope Lively's 14th novel, but she shows no sign of running out of inventiveness or of failing to write books that are hugely pleasurable to read. This one is deftly edged with humour." Independent on Sunday (UK)
