Magnificent - deeply moving
*Sunday Times*
With Birdsong Faulks has produced a mesmerizing story of love and
war... This book is so powerful that as I finished it I turned to
the front to start again
*Sunday Express*
Amazing... I have read it and re-read it and can think of no other
novel for many, many years that has so moved me or stimulated in me
so much reflection on the human spirit
*Daily Mail*
An overpowering and beautiful novel... Ambitious, outrageous,
poignant, sleep-disturbing, Birdsong is not a perfect novel, just a
great one
*New Yorker*
Engrossing, moving, and unforgettable
*The Times*
This is a great love story
*Daily Express*
One of the finest novels of the last forty years
*Mail on Sunday*
This is literature at its very best: a book with the power to
reveal the unimagined, so that one's life is set in a changed
context. I urge you to read it
*Time Out*
So powerful is this recreated past that you long to call Birdsong
perfect
*The Times*
A powerful novel that is difficult to put down
*Independent on Sunday*
