Industry reviews
"[W]hen the narrative leaves love to one side and concerns itself with depicting a world and a time in chaos, it rises to heights far, far above the barren plain where most of contemporary fiction makes its tiny maneuvers."
New York Times Book Review - John Banville (10/12/2003)

"Hazzard painstakingly constructs a compact panorama of a world ravaged by war, in her expert fourth novel....[T]his almost indescribably rich story...moves from strength to strength, and no reader will be unmoved by its sorrowing, soaring eloquence. One of the finest novels ever written about war and its aftermath...."
Kirkus  (08/15/2003)
