Recenzii

Refined, repressed and simmering... a delicious tale of Victorian spiritualism -- Mel Steel ― Independent on Sunday

Spooky, spellbinding, exquisitely written... I do believe Waters is on the way to becoming a major literary star ― Val Hennessy

Beautifully, atmospherically written, this is a tale to thrill your very soul ― Metro

An exquisitely sad, pseudo-ghost story... it is a novel that takes countless risks -- Matt Thorne ― Independent on Sunday

Affinity is the work of an intense and atmospheric imagination... Sarah Waters is such an interesting writer, a kind of feminist Dickens -- Fiona Pitt-Kethley ― Daily Telegraph

Sarah Waters is such a brilliant writer that her readers would believe anything she told them -- A.N. Wilson ― Daily Mail

Extraordinary... written in a subtly caricatured period style... So well researched is this novel that both diaries seem grotesquely authentic ― The Times

Sexy, spooky, stylish, Affinity is a wonderful book ― Guardian

Waters displays her incredible talent for the Gothic historical novel in this splendid book about a Victorian women's prison and the affair there between an inmate and a lady visitor ― San Francisco Chronicle

Gothic tale, psychological study, puzzle narrative... superbly suspenseful... This is gripping, astute fiction that feeds the mind and senses ― Seattle Times

Unfolds sinuously and ominously... a powerful plot-twister... a truly suspenseful tale of terror; and a piece of elegant, thinly veiled erotica. Like a Ouija board, Affinity offers different messages to different readers, scaring the shrouds off everyone in the process ― USA Today

A richly detailed exploration of the mysterious affinity that appears to unite two lonely women... Waters has found a superb metaphor for the love that dares not speak its name, and developed it with remarkable ingenuity and power: another stunning performance ― Kirkus
