Rezension zu „This Is the Story of a Happy Marriage “
PRAISE FOR STATE OF WONDER: 'Riverting and supremely moving Maggie O'Farrell A triumph and Patchett's best book yet Guardian The best book I have read all year. It made me laugh and weep and left me in a state of wonder: perfect from first page to last ... [a] masterpiece Emma Donoghue Riveting and visceral Independent There is a stillness and beauty to Ann Patchett's writing that takes the breath away The Times Every so often I read something that makes me want to press it ferverantly and evangelliacally onto everyone I meet ... I loved this Joanna Trollope, Sunday Telegraph
