Typically Trollope! 24 July 2001
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
This is a really modern story, up to the minute and deals with difficult cirumstances in a sympathetic way. However, there are many stereo-typical themes which are found in many books of the same genre. The story is slow in parts and there is very little change of pace throughout. This is typically Trollope - a good read but not a book that needs to be read more than once!

Format:Hardcover
I have read some of the comments about Joanne Trollope's new book and am very surprised by some of them. I was enthralled and couldn't put the book down. Maybe because I have been through something a bit similar I could understand. I actually starting crying at the end when Jack and his grandfather were talking in the garden. I thought it was the best book Joanne has written and I have read them all! I can't wait for the next one.

As the daughter of parents who went through a similar experience, I found this a facinating and absorbing read that gave me an insight into what may have gone on between my father and the wicked woman who started as his mistress, but to whom he really did go on to marry...

Clever Characterisation
In her usual fashion, Joanna Trollope has gone right to the heart of an emotional tangle in this story. Read more

Boring, miserable characters
When you start siding with the "baddies" in a novel, you know there must be something wrong. This was one of the dullest reads I've ever had. Read more

Not a spectacular story and, at times. hard going
So many books have been written telling the same story in slightly different words. Why this particularly feminine author felt she had to resort to the 'f' word so unnecessarily... Read more

Very disappointing!
This was first Joanna Trollope novel, tried after reading good reviews. I don't think I will be tempted to try any more of her books! Read more

An enjoyable read - this story seemed very much a story about the times we live in - there is so much that everyone can relate to. Read more
