Media Reviews
'Resistance is futile ... you might as well buy it before someone recommends it for your book group. Its charm will make you say yes' The Guardian 'Clever, informative and moving ... this is an admirable novel which deserves as wide a readership here as it had in France.' The Observer 'The novel wins over its fans with a life-affirming message, a generous portion of heart and Barbery's frequently wicked sense of humor' Time Magazine 'A book of great charm and grace.' The Metro 'The book's attractive, Amelie-esque Parisian setting and cast of eccentrics will appeal to many' Sunday Telegraph 'This breathtakingly singular novel ... is totally French yet completely universal' Good Housekeeping 'Reveals itself as a version of the Cinderella fairytale' Financial Times
