A profoundly moving story about love, loss, memory and identity -- Tina Jackson Metro A moving portrait of a marriage and an uneasy sense of life's banalities as well as its profundities -- Simon Humphreys Mail on Sunday I was very much moved by An Exclusive Love... Johanna Adorjan writes with beautiful precision and suppleness... A truly memorable book -- Diana Athill Beautifully written... ...the precision of the detail and the nuance of the writing somehow make the narrative resonate -- Piers Plowright Tabletmehr
