‘The narrative unfolds, as befits the master of the genre, in a non-linear way which demands attention … It is a cleverly and carefully constructed piece … places her sharpness and linguistic rigour at the centre of her story, rather than reducing her memory to the manner of her death. One suspects she would more than approve. … And that’s more than acceptable: it’s perfect. For a woman whose literary legacy has both puzzled and magnetised readers for over a century, this feels absolutely as it should be.’ Broadway Baby
