Recensione:
A gripping read: a balanced, detailed account that allows the reader to respond to the central question: did they or didn't they?... It's hard to imagine there will be a better book on the subject. (Tobias Jones, The Observer)
an excellent account of the tragedy and the very Italian drama that followed. (Stephen Robinson, The Sunday Times - a Sunday Times 'MUST READ')
I was very much in the grip of this book. For two days I didn't switch on the TV ... Follain's account will trouble you for days. (William Leith, The Evening Standard)
In a case as familiar as this has become, it is surprising to go over it from the start ... (DEATH IN PERUGIA) does a good job of reminding us that amid the reams of print and reel are human lives; some innocent and some guilty, but all irreparably disfigured by this horribly sad story. (Ed Cumming, The Daily Telegraph)
I've been absorbed all week by ... the enthralling, soon to be best seller, I'm sure, DEATH IN PERUGIA. (Paul Holmes, The New Zealand Herald)
A fascinating book. (Ray D'Arcy, Today FM, Dublin)
A hot-off-the press account of the riveting murder trial of American student Amanda Knox, accused with her boyfriend and a drifter of killing her flatmate Meredith Kercher. (The Newcastle Herald)
Follain's impartiality works beautifully ... Follain always manages to bring humanity to the book in between the gory detail. (Tim Ellis, www.suite101.com, Vancouver)
'a careful, factual account of the case from the very beginning, complete with exhaustive interviews with key players, assiduous explanation of the complex details of the case, and a good understanding of the Italian judicial process'. (Gillian Lord, The Canberrra Times)
A riveting account of the whole affair, from the murder and trial to the electrifying appeals-court decision ... a vivid portrait of the woman at the center of it all ... Follain's book, based on hundreds of interviews and enriched by his unique access to the complete case files, is remarkably objective and fair-minded to all parties involved. (The Wall Street Journal, on A DEATH IN ITALY)
