A funny, astute and moving depiction of a charming vanished England
Corrine Buxton, BBC Countryfile
Comic, benignly forgiving and shot through with threads of nostalgic regret
Independent
In these stories de Bernieres casts a loveing eye on the world we have lost and invites you to share its intimacies
Allan Massie, Scotsman
A timely examination of the charming and, at time, heart-wrenchingly sad aspects of English village life...testament to the rude health of the author's own imagination
Adam O'Riordan, Financial Times
The creator of Captain Corelli is fond of an exotic setting and he has found one in his own backyard... The stories are sketches of lives that settle into the atmosphere of a place and make it unique
Kate Saunders, The Times
A delightful collection...exquisitely told
Clare Colvin, Daily Mail
