Review
"* 'A beautiful book, savage and tender by turns. Nobody else can write this well about the bravery and the sad wisdom of children. In a culture which dins with brashness and self-advertisement, attending to Esther Freud's still, truthful voice becomes not only a pleasure but a necessity' Jonathan Coe"
