Praise
-
A page turner and a heartbreaker, a tour de force of knotted tension and buried anguish.
Time
-
A Gothic tour de force... A tight, deftly controlled story... Just as accomplished [as The Remains of the Day] and, in a very different way, just as melancholy and alarming.
The New York Times
-
Elegaic, deceptively lovely... As always, Ishiguro pulls you under.
Newsweek
-
Superbly unsettling, impeccably controlled... The book's irresistible power comes from Ishiguro's matchless ability to expose its dark heart in careful increments.
