REVIEWS OF ROMAN BACKSTAGE AT THE MUSEUM

Scoundrels, rebels, losers and traitors. They may be in every family, but they are rarely described with such accuracy and sarcasm as in this book.Washington Times
This story, which describes several generations of a surprisingly troubled Yorkshire family, has become one of the wittiest British novels in many years.New York Times Book Review

Quotes
Childhood home

Lawrence thought of home. He'd been thinking a lot about it lately, about the cold northern house where he'd spent his childhood. About flat fields and bare Bald Hills, where plants and animals had to fight for survival, and the fertility that flooded the landscape with hot Park soup was carefully cherished.

Sweet and bitter life

How does life manage to be so sweet and so bitter at the same time?How's it going? A joyful murmur can be heard from the stadium. Judith Cooper slaps her exam notebook. Understanding is immediately beyond reach. A key is hidden on a high shelf or under the parquet floor. The key to what? To the closet with lost property, to anything else.
