Pressestimmen

A beautifully written book, its tone admirably judged and perfectly sustained...It is wide fastidious and deeply thoughtful in its range of reference, Temperate, controlled and delicately scrupulous, it is a tribute if ever there was one to the "honest consciousness." Times Literary Supplement
