Recensioner i media

"I was bowled over...I finished the book wishing it had been twice as long" -- Jeremy Paxman "I can think of no other writer whose novels I look forward to with such gleeful anticipation. A Patchwork Planet is her fourteenth book, but were it for fortieth, it would not be enough for me... A delight from beginning to end" Observer "Anne Tyler is inventive, funny and wise. Her fiction is magically alive to the quirks and coincidences of fate... [A Patchwork Planet] is charming, readable, and more full of touching and humane observations than many other novels you will read this year" Guardian "A Patchwork Planet is thoroughly enjoyable...from this most responsive novel" Sunday Times "Tyler's best book yet - which must make it pretty near perfection" The Times
