Recensioner i media

"A novel of sensuous prose, sodden landscapes and loopy couplings" -- Emma Hagestadt Independent "Strewn with bewitching kisses, sexual ambiguity and infatuations that take hold during dreams... Written with a light confident touch, and exquisite pacing" Observer "A light and delightful debut: a novel of love and infatuation in the English countryside. Nicely packaged and perfect for summer" Bookseller "The dextrous shifting between the plausible and implausible, is what gives The Madness of Love its hallucinatory quality; its texture of changeable taffeta" -- Ruth Pavey Independent
