After Colette

by Joan Lingard
3.5 (6)
“Joan Lingard has taken a great risk with this book, inviting comparisons with Colette. She justifies it. The novel is full of vitality,; it has also that bitter-sweet sympathy with human frailty which was one of Colette’s greatest qualities. This is a very good novel.” – Allan Massie, The Scotsman

“Joan Lingard performs a delicate balancing act between different strands of source material to create an engaging and intriguing story.” – Alex Clark, Times Literary Supplement

“Wholly convincing, exequisitely crafted fiction . . . a telling tale written . . . with great concision and compassion.” – Tom Adair, Scotland on Sunday

“Ambitious, well-written, skilfully constructed.” – Jessica Mann, Sunday Telegraph

Shorted listed for the Saltire Society Scottish Book of the Year Award.

Winner of a Scottish Arts Council Book Award.
