Inhalt/Kritik

Kritik
'Every once in a while comes a novel that generates its own success, simply by being loved.' The Times 'Birdsong for the new millennium' Tatler 'Powerful, sometimes shocking, boldly conceived, it fixes on war's lingering trauma to show how people adapt - or not - and is irradiated by anger and pity' The Sunday Times '[A] tender, elegiac novel. Others have been here before, of course, from Sebastian Faulks to Pat Barker, but Young belongs in their company' Mail on Sunday 'Unmissable ... in crisp poignant prose Young explores what war really means in terms of mental anguish, while cleverly commenting on class and sex' Marie Claire 'Weaving heartbreakingly painful irony, heroic sacrifice, human weakness, vanity, tragedy and the purest of loves, you'll be left sobbing and grasping onto any hope that all is not lost amid the poppies, the guns and the hospital beds' Easy Living 'A memorable and unusual novel which explores new ground in the literature of the Great War' Linda Grant 'This novel is a triumph' Elizabeth Jane Howard 'Young has a historian's eye for the private details of war, and a warmth to her prose that makes her small cast emotionally engaging ... Through Riley, however, the novel achieves an appeal to compassion and courage that deserves to reach a wide audience ... Hindsight tells us peace will not be final, but Young conveys, beautifully, the universal wish that it might be' Independent 'Beautifully realised' Daily Express 'Masterfully conveyed' Woman & Home 'Full of drama, betrayal and addictive real-life detail' Red 'This is a moving and powerful novel, one you're not likely to forget' Choice 'A book that should be read by everyone' New Booksmehr
