Rezension zu „Bone China “
'Told with intelligence and grace, "Bone China" is a compassionate take of an anguished spirit with an irrepressible quest for assimilation. Perhaps this single, slender volume of expression will get the author the acceptance she deserves.' Christopher Ondaatje, Sunday Telegraph 'One of those rich, nourishing family sagas that seizes the imagination ... Tearne carries her story triumphantly into the present.' The Times 'Tearne's evocative descriptions of landscapes, cities, wildlife and weather carry the novel through its geographical shifts.' TLS 'Tearne's second novel also deftly reveals the corrosive effects of civil strife on private lives and the redemptiveness of art. Probing loss and memory amid violence and displacement, her novels have affinities with Romesh Gunesekera's groundbreaking fiction.' Guardian
