Critical Praise

"Moggach reproduces the coded language of 17th-century Dutch art with subtle artfulness. At the same time, she tells a truly thrilling love story."

——The Financial Times

"Spirited and ingenious--Clever, spry, and sad in equal measure."

——The Telegraph

"A gorgeous novel: both funny and tragic, full of sharply drawn characters and equally sharp insight into the transforming power of love--which can be as destructive as it is addictive."

——The Mail
