Recensione:
Anita Shreve specialises in the way unresolved past events can erupt into the present, and how tragedy lurks in the most ordinary lives (DAILY MAIL)
Shreve writes cool, lucid, popular fiction and the hugely readable A WEDDING IN DECEMBER is no exception (METRO)
The perfect, weightless read is not always escapist. Some of us like to escape into writing that is thoughtful and sharp, telling a story filled with the moral complexities of so-called "ordinary" life. Come on down, Anita Shreve - warm, wise and utterly absorbing (THE TIMES)
Shreve taps the intrinsic potency of school reunions . . . A WEDDING IN DECEMBER demonstrates the page-turning talent that can draw a tear with ease . . . a model of suspense (SUNDAY TELEGRAPH)
