Review:
“Intriguing...Janet Lewis combines scrupulous research and exquisite craftsmanship to create stories of timeless human drama...must rank among the finest historical fiction in English.”
— Tim Gioe, WDCB FM Radio, Chicago
A harmonious retelling of a seventeenth-century legend concerning a saintly pastor, his cherished daughter, and the villain who betrayed them...Miss Lewis’s artfully simple prose achieves the effect of an ancient, lovingly illuminated missal.”
— The New Yorker
“Lewis has retold a true legend of Denmark in unadorned, free, and exciting prose. Here is a gruesomely fascinating story of such circumstantial evidence as to make the reader want to cry out in protest.”
— Saturday Review of Literature
“Some of the twentieth century’s most vividly imagined and finely wrought literature.”
— The New York Times
