Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"The author's prose has the merits of simplicity, euphony and precision. His descriptions leave one as if standing in the Botswanan landscape. This is art that conceals art."

"In the course of her work, Mma Ramotswe offers ample evidence of her country's complexities and contradictions ... Mma Ramotswe's methods--and her results--are as unusual as the novels they inhabit."

"Delightful ... The warm humanity infused throughout [McCall Smith's] novels is what brings readers back ... There is simplicity and lyricism in [the] language that brings out the profound importance of everyday revelations."

Reseña del editor:

Under the endless skies of Botswana, there is always something Mma Ramotswe can do to help someone and here she finds herself assisting a woman looking for her family. The problem is the woman doesn't know her real name or whether any of her family members are still alive. Meanwhile, Mma Makutsi is the recipient of a beautiful new bed that causes more than a few sleepless nights. And, at Tlokweng Road Speedy Motors, Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni has come under the influence of a doctor promising a miracle cure for his daughter's medical condition, which Mma Ramotswe finds hard to accept. Nonetheless, Precious Ramotswe handles these things in her usual compassionate and good-natured way, while always finding time for a cup of red bush tea.
