"I studied Macbeth for English many years ago, so I appreciated Roxborogh's fidelity to Shakespeare's acclaimed play. If it is a sequel to Macbeth, then I am not too disappointed in Roxborogh. Many names appear in this novel that will be familiar with"

Funny and poignant but what I think is so clever is the way Josh tells the story in real time eg the six year old narrator, the 9 year old, the 13 year old etc. Learnt so much. |

“She suddenly thought one afternoon, when looking in the glass at her fairness, that there was yet another date, of greater importance to her than those; that of her own death, when all these charms would have disappeared; a day which lay sly and unseen among all the other days of the year, giving no sign or sound when she annually passed over it; but not the less surely there. When was it? Why did she not feel the chill of each yearly encounter with such a cold relation? She had Jeremy Taylor's thought that some time in the future those who had known her would say, 'It is the -th, the day that poor Tess Durbeyfield died'; and there would be nothing singular to their minds in the statement. Of that day, doomed to be her terminus in time through all the ages, she did not know the place in month, week, season, or year.”
