The Comet Seekers

Rezensionen / Stimmen

A magical debut...a gorgeous novel that should resonate with fans of Audrey Niffenegger's The Time Traveller's Wife... A breathtaking tale full of love, hope and heartbreak. You'll be utterly captivated from the first page * Elle * Beautiful, sad, moving, fascinating and original. I loved it. -- Marian Keyes A stellar love story * Glamour, Book of the Year * Exquisitely layered, thrilling novel, which leaps across centuries and continents to delve into the role of destiny and the elusiveness of perception and memory. * New York Times * A spellbinding tale of love and loss, aglimmer with passion and melancholy. * Sunday Express, S Magazine * Beautiful, haunting. * The Pool * A beautifully imagined and original conceit.... There is no escaping the undeniable artistry of this book, a clever triumvirate of love, ghosts and time-travel. -- Jade Craddock * I * A beautiful love story. * Love it * Her laconic tone and measured prose belie the novel's dramatic content... Sedgwick is a highly evocative writer who makes excellent use of nature to showcase her themes... Her charming debut maps the world's big questions on an even larger plane' -- Sarah Gilmartin * Irish Times * A fluid narrative voice, pointedly lyrical. And, as in the work of contemporary fabulists like Kelly Link, Helen Oyeyemi and Audrey Niffenegger, the real intersects matter-of-factly with the supernatural...Many of this novel's pleasures have to do with teasing out the implications of Sedgwick's intricate pattern...This web of associations, spun by recurring images and figures, lends a different spin to the idea of a love that's meant to be. * New York Times Book Review *
