Recensioner i media

"Sadler's Birthday is as far from the stereotype of a young woman's first novel as it can be. It is a masterly study of a lonely but loyal man that is deeply felt, intelligent and often touchingly funny. I liked it very much" -- Angus Wilson "A first novel of remarkable talent; never a foot set wrong" Financial Times "Brilliant... A quintessentially English writer - her work has a charm and finesse, a civilised irony" Guardian "This is a writer whose breadth of imagination and supple prose transcend the genre: she is one of the finest writers in English" Daily Telegraph "She is a magical storyteller - it is as an artist that she excels" New Statesman
