Dazzlingly well-written. The style is exuberant and extremely funny. This is a midsummer's night dream of a book, mythic and unforgettable

Other text

What a delicious literary cocktail Sadie Jones's latest novel is: part suspense, part Edwardian romcom, richly evocative of time and place… It's a spiffing tale and, even though it is at bottom a metaphysical love story, it is far more believable than Downton Abbey
