Recensione:

Th e laser-sharp intelligence of award-winning novelist and short story writer Ruth Prawer Jhabvala is etched into these 17 compelling tales (Anita Sethi Observer)

The 17 stories in At The End of the Century . . . chronicle Jhabvala's concern with cultural encounters, dislocation and the immigrant experience. Misogyny - and sensuality - bubble up through impeccably constructed pros (New Statesman)
