I have binged on Eva Ibbotson . . . I read one after another, and rather feel your Christmas might be brightened by doing the same.Nigella Lawson, The Sunday Times
Her adult books manage to be radiant and comforting, even though they address war, migration, racism and eugenics. In these frightening times, I want to read about open-hearted heroines pursuing happiness and love against the odds.Samantha Ellis, The TLS
