Críticas

"A wonderful, hypnotic novel of fabulous scope and tremendous iridescent charm." -Joseph Heller "Captain Corelli's Mandolin is an emotional, funny, stunning novel which swings with wide smoothness between joy and bleakness, personal lives and history...it's lyrical and angry, satirical and earnest." -"Observer "Louis de Bernieres is in the direct line that runs through Dickens and Evelyn Waugh...he has only to look into his world, one senses, for it to rush into reality, colours and touch and taste." -A.S. Byatt
