'A big book with a big heart. Pears is an unashamedly moving writer and this marvellous book will reduce many to tears' Punch
'His genius in telling a story...An operatic novel full of death, sex, brothers, sisters, cousins and throbbing hearts' Daily Telegraph
'Astonishing and amibitious...Each detail is resonant, and the author's realism and compassion irradiates the writing. A story about people - us - and their context, written with authority and unshowy grace. Early nineteenth-century France had Balzac, we have Pears to trace our fortunes and follies' The Times
'Impossible to resist. I could go on about how wonderful it is, but read it for yourself' Time Out
'He's an astonishing novelist, as interested in small domestic detail as in the wider implications of human relationships. A long book, yes, but so satisfying that I wished it even longer' Good Housekeeping
