Rezension zu „A Question of Belief “
"Leon's books are a joy, and the 19th Venice-based Commissario Brunetti novel is well up to her consistently high standard" Guardian "Leon excels in the claustrophobia of families, the Italian class system and the sinister aspects of Venice that the tourists don't see" -- Marcel Berlins The Times "To read a Donna Leon novel is to have an armchair holiday in her lovingly described Venice, in the company of an old friend - the amiable Commissario Brunetti ... Leon never fails to impress with her carefully wrought plots and believable characters" Daily Mail "Knowingness, or an illusion of knowingness, is essential to successful crime-writing ... Donna Leon has mastered this technique perfectly" -- Jonathan Keates TLS "Donna Leon has established a special hold on the reader's imagination, so it is almost easier to imagine the Commissario returning to lunch with his feisty wife, just round the corner, than almost any other fiction character in the immortal (we hope) city... A Question of Belief is particularly enjoyable...Donna Leon's great skill is to invest the characters in her crime novels with a kind of humanity, even the wrongdoers... [a] marvellous evocation of the magic city, and its inhabitants of all types" -- Antonia Fraser The Lady
