My book of the summer July 4, 2008 A. Bowen 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
A massive fan of Esther Freud, I wasn't disappointed by this one. Wish I'd shelled out for it in hardback yonks ago actually! A brilliant holiday read - all about coming of age / first love / a holiday romance - I was whisked away to Tuscany with Lara, as desperate as she was to know how her entanglement with the incestuous Willoughby clan would pan out. I also loved the subplot about the Palio di Siena, the fiery passions of which tip into violence, a subtle parallel to the inner world of the characters. In fact, not to go all psycho-babble, but what I really adore about Freud is her emotional intelligence - she is an incredibly astute observer of behavior, and here evokes the emotional landscape of an adolescent girl brilliantly.If you want female characters who ring true - rather than the one-dimensional men and shopping obsessed type - Freud's intelligent, resonant novels are for you.
