| My second read of this novel, and it's as good as I remember it. The build-up throughout the story is so well-paced and gripping, and the final moments of Anne Boleyn are terrifying and macabre. You can't help but look upon it all, horrified, wanting ...more | |

| Excellent novel, and really comes into its own as an audio book. Bengamin Wood does a great job of narrating and singing. His American accent is convincing too. It's also a fabulous story with so many layers. It's short, bitter-sweet, moving, and ent ...more | |
"3.5, rounded up.
I enjoyed reading most of this novel. Set during the famous big freeze of 1962-3, it felt authentic for the time period - which was actually pre-Beatles. Pre a lot of things, however now and then a ‘modern’ word or expression crept i" Read more of this review » |

| I wanted to read this after seeing the film of the same name. It's very different to the film, but I can see what was taken from the novel and transformed into the movie. Both are very good - horrifying, inventive, moving, and hypnotic. Perhaps also ...more | |

| Brilliantly read audiobook. The narrator is Madeleine Leslay and she is perfect for this novel. She gets the tone just right. This is an unusual story, at times funny, quaint, and charming. But don't allow the rather misleadingly sentimental title to ...more | |

“I find things hidden in books: dried flowers, locks of hair, tickets, labels, receipt, invoices, photographs, postcards, all manner of cards. I find letters, unpublished works by the ordinary, the anguished, the illiterate. Clumsily written or eloquent, they are love letters, everyday letters, secret letters and mundane letters talking about fruit and babies and tennis matches, from people signing themselves as Majorie or Jean....I can't bring myself to dispose of these snippets and snapshots of lives that once meant (or still do mean) so much.”
