[ Human Croquet ] fizzes and crackles along."-Penelope Lively, The Independent (London), "A literary tour de force."-- San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle " Human Croquet offers further proof that Kate Atkinson is off and running in quite a fantastic direction of her own devising."--Katharine Weber, The New York Times Book Review "[Kate Atkinson] writes such fluid, sparkling prose that an ingenious plot almost seems too much to ask, but we get it anyway."-- Salon.com "A novel which will dazzle readers for years to come."--Hilary Mantel, London Review of Books, [Kate Atkinson] writes such fluid, sparkling prose that an ingenious plot almost seems too much to ask, but we get it anyway., Human Croquet offers further proof that Kate Atkinson is off and running in quite a fantastic direction of her own devising., "Atkinson's language is a joy . . .

- r***a (179)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimo annoAcquisto verificatoThe used book was exactly as described like new. The seller promptly shipped my book and did not play games with the shipping fee I paid (included in the price) . Several sellers include the shipping fee in the price but then when they ship they opt for a cheaper shipping fee so they profit from the difference while they let the customer wait for longer to receive the item. This HONEST seller did not do that. Transit time from GA to Miami was what I paid for and exactly 3 days in bubble envelopeWilliams-Sonoma Collection: Cake Gage, Fran (N° 146264786700)
