A dazzling hall of mirrors... Ferociously ambitious... Illumined by a fizzing passion for the recondite
Daily Telegraph
Combines dazzling erudition with assured narrative skills to offer glimpses of some of history's darkest corners, and stark and timely challenges to the very notions of civilisation and progress
Independent on Sunday
Combining the visceral pleasures of a thriller with the more intellectual excitements of a novel of ideas... Beautifully constructed...never less than engrossing
Sunday Telegraph
Irresistibly seizes the imagination
Evening Standard
Vivid, admirably imagined, ultimately very moving...This is a novel of the very highest ambition...immediate, sensuous, beautiful
Alan Massie, Scotsman
