Recensione:
"Pell Ridley will captivate the readers of this book."
— The Globe and Mail
"Rosoff specializes in feisty heroines, and her main character here, Pell Ridley, is no exception."
— The Guardian (UK)
"Meg Rosoff is a wonderful, captivating writer--her evocation of place and time are pitch-perfect."
— Daily Telegraph (UK)
"As exhilarating as a ride across the moors, Rosoff's fourth novel is rich in the emotional landscape of the untamed female heart. . . . Rosoff's vivid, pared-down style brings it closer to a kind of western . . . every sentence is crafted and weighted with beauty, but it's the intelligence and shaping sensibility with which the story is told that make it something special."
— The Times (London)
“Rosoff specializes in feisty heroines, and her main character here, Pell Ridley, is no exception.... Rosoff never patronises her readership or succumbs to the desire to make goodness seem simple: her world is as morally ambiguous as it is deftly realized, and all the better for it.”
—The Guardian
