Omschrijving
A nostalgic treat...involving and hopeful
A nostalgic treat...involving and hopeful
Excellent... a period tale of sentimental education, it's deliciously readable, with a clever epilogue zooming into the present day for a last gasp surprise
No one can dig down into the shrouded recesses of the human heart quite as forensically as Vickers
Vickers writes of relationships with undaunted clarity
Quirky and charming
This beautifully crafted novel is a tribute to the power of books
The Librarian will wring the heart of anyone who fell in love with books as a child. It is a hymn to the power of children's literature...delightful
Vickers lays bare the inner workings of one family, possibly every family, with an often disconcerting clarity
Vickers' real skill as a story teller is in allowing each distinct voice to contribute to a complete, or as complete as can be, picture of one family... the pace gathers, making for a deeply poignant climax
Salley Vickers is the author of many novels, including Miss Garnet's Angel, The Cleaner of Chartres and Cousins. She has worked as a teacher of children with special needs, a university teacher of literature and a psychoanalyst. She now writes fulltime and divides her time between London and Wiltshire. She attributes such success as she has achieved in life to an early love of reading.
