Katharine Weber, The New York Times Book Review "[Kate Atkinson] writes such fluid, sparkling prose that an ingenious plot almost seems too much to ask, but we get it anyway." –
Salon.com "A literary tour de force." –
San Francisco Examiner & Chronicle "Intelligent, sympathetic, and terribly funny, this is simply a wonderful book." –
Kate Tuttle, Boston Book Review "Vivid and intriguing . . . [
Human Croquet] fizzes and crackles along." –
