The Wonder House
Reviews
'The Wonder House remains a novel that is always
poised, often engrossing, and sometimes perceptive and moving.
I, for one, will await her next novel with some eagerness.'
The Guardian
'Hardy’s evident intimacy with and affection
for the troubled landscape and people of her novel lend The
Wonder House an air of distinction that sets it a little apart
from the ordinary run of summer romances.'
The Times
'Hardy, in the careful, objective style of documentary
journalism, allows us to experience a society where ordinary
lives come under persistent attack from those who would dictate
to others how they might or might not live out their days.'
The Hudson Review
'Hardy brings no baggage to the telling of the
story; there is no question of taking sides or delivering
covert sermons. This is basically a well-defined story with
well-defined characters; it just so happens that the tale
unfolds in Kashmir, imparting and infusing it with touches
of beauty and pain.'
The Hindu
