The author's witty manipulation of her characters recalls the other Trollope, although there is nothing Victorian about her style... perfectly pitched dialogue
The Times
A feisty read you won't want to put down
Woman
Poignant prose... her novels have always contained the unexpected, but lately they've gained a grittiness which suits the everyday subject matter that lies at the heart of her writing
Glamour
One of the finest chroniclers of the way we live now
Independent on Sunday
Trollope has perfectly caught the angst of the empty nest... the ebb and flow of relationships is brilliantly handled
The Observer
The queen of the domestic dilemma... observant and empathetic
The Sunday Times
Trollope has always written well and convincingly about property. It's her refusal to divorce her characters' inner lives from the accumulated stuff of their outer ones that makes the best of it so compelling
The Daily Telegraph
Playful, unguessable and clever
Sunday Express
Joanna Trollope has an uncanny knack of pinpointing key modern domestic dilemmas around which to thicken her absorbing plots
Daily Mail
Intelligent and humane, and there's never a word out of place
Evening Standard
A must-read for empty nesters ... this is Trollope at her most poignant
Guernsey Now
Beautifully written, and her treatment of the generation gap between parents and offspring is observed with all the unforced empathy that has become her hallmark
Observer
A compulsively readable tragi-comedy of empty nest syndrome... never a dull moment
Katie Owen, Sunday Telegraph
