- 3/5 Grace
En trevlig och underhållande roman om ett par udda öden. Jag tyckte mycket om doft- och parfymtemat, det ger romanen en intressant vinkel. Skön läsning.
- 4/5 M. G
A surpyisingly good book, written with finesse and elegance,
Good dialogues, remarkable thoughts and real characters, easy to sympathize with their feelings,
their desires and their decisions.
A wave of perfume and loneliness. Very interesting indeed. - 4/5 Jeanette O
