Reviews

Grenville makes awkward atmospheres and fumbling encounters wonderfully vivid. Read it and cringe
From these two reticent characters, besieged by two lifetimes of regret, doubt and dismay, Grenville manufactures an extraordinary comedy of manners, made all more powerful by her own reticence as a writer
Outrageously entertaining
Mined throughout with little pockets of danger and depth
