Anmeldelser
«A brutal analysis of a wartime collaborator's moral vacuity. There's a cold, ruthless beauty to Simenon's writing.»
Spectator
«Feels incredibly modern... it is brutal, frank about sex and violence, and will make your flesh creep.»
Ian Rankin
«A masterpiece, completely brilliant . . . so nihilistic and so completely barren . . . but it is saved from being comically French by the vigour with which the story is told and the great knowingness of the author's voice.»
India Knight
«One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century . . . Simenon was unequaled at making us look inside, though the ability was masked by his brilliance at absorbing us obsessively in his stories»
Guardian
«Fierce, bleak and compellingly written . . . with pitiless landscapes of hopeless longing, random cruelty and galloping fate warmed only by the twilit lyricism of doomed desire. These are novels of eye-opening, spine-tingling control and intensity.»
Boyd Tonkin, The Independent
«A supreme writer . . . unforgettable vividness»
Independent
