The author has certainly chosen to work with a lot of ingredients here, and yet the subtlety with which she does so makes for a hearty literary meal-one in which each part feels as if it's essential. If good books are those that entertain while simultaneously provoking thought, then this one certainly qualifies... <BR> -"The Hartford Examiner"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Sophie Hannah is the bestselling author of eight novels and is also an award-winning poet.
