Reviews
An exciting adventure in fiction. Unconventional in structure, in characterisation and development of story . . . Unforgettable
A psychological novel -- keyed to the market of such books as Strange Woman and Leave Her To Heaven but immeasurably beyond them in subtlety and craftsmanship, in nuance and implication . . . An oddly haunting book, expertly handled
I cannot doubt that this is Miss Lehmann's best and most permanent book
Lehmann legitimised a type of writing that took on deep personal themes
