Rezension zu „Cider with Rosie “
"It has got a marvellous morning freshness. There is hardly a sentence in it that does not set the sense of touch and smell, as well as sight and hearing, tingling" Daily Mail "Remains as fresh and full of joy and gratitude for youth and its sensations as when it first appeared. It sings in the memory" Sunday Times "One of the great writers of the twentieth century" Independent "An enchanting book, an exquisite farewell, not only to childhood, and boyhood, but also to an England that has vanished" -- Jb Priestly "He had a nightingale inside him, a capacity for sensuous, lyrical precision" Guardian
