âEuro²Engrossing stories of hilarity and heartbreak" from the Whitbread AwardâEuro"winning author of the Old Filth trilogy (The Seattle Times). A collection of stories from a writer at the height of her powersâEuro"a celebrated stylist admired for her caustic humor, freewheeling imagination, love of humanity, and wicked powers of observation. This is a delightful grouping of stories, witty and wise, that includes the return of Sir Edward Feathers, âEuro²Old Filth" himself. âEuro²[GardamâEuros] stories, like delicate tapestries, are alight with colors." âEuro"The Times (London) âEuro²When Gardam hits her mark, like other exemplary short-story writers such as William Trevor, Sylvia Townsend Warner and Elizabeth Taylor, she can be dazzling." âEuro"The Guardian âEuro²GardamâEuros brisk narration and fearless temperament make for serious fun." âEuro"Kirkus Reviews (starred review) âEuro²Wry, economical and perpetually surprising, these 14 stories from English novelist Gardam follow the last of the intrepid, stiff upper lip WWII generation of British ladies and gentlemen. . . . Gardam vividly evokes an age of iron wills." âEuro"Publishers Weekly âEuro²Gardam displays the consummate skill of the short-story-teller, which is that of the caricaturist, the ability to capture a personality in a few brief strokes. . . . Privilege Hill is a collection of gentle stories that you could read to your grandmother, with the kind of sharp wit that would no doubt give her a secret smile. But theyâEurore deeper than they look . . . so donâEurot read them all at once." âEuro"The Bookbag
