Revue de presse :
"Brooding, brilliant...One of the most evocative and original books to be published in recent years...Trevor weaves a web of suspense and apprehension that is at once terrifying and believable." —The London Free Press
"In reading this rich, riveting novel, the reader basks in the glow of Trevor's compassion and the consummate integrity of his pure poetic skills." —The Globe and Mail
"Perfectly executed and chilling...Mr. Trevor is able to turn the stuff of lurid, tabloid headlines into a sad and oddly moving tale of lost opportunities and misplaced hopes." —The New York Times
