Críticas
What a brilliant book. The Return reads as easily as a thriller, but is a story that will stick; a person is lost but gravity and resonance remain (Hilary Mantel)
It is likely to become a classic. (Colm Tóibín)
A total work of art. It reminded me of Solzhenitsyn. It is of the same importance. I love it.
(James Rebanks)Wise and agonizing and thrilling to read (Zadie Smith)
Bristles with arresting wisdom (Jeremy Paxman)
A treasure for the ages (Peter Carey)
Tremendously powerful (Nadeem Aslam)
A magnificent memoir of exile and loss (Rawi Hage)
One of the essential books of our times (Adam Foulds)
A profound and powerful meditation on love, loss and exile (Sunday Express)
