Pressestimmen
'A confident whirl of a read, with pathos and drama nicely juxtaposed' -- Guardian 'Every once in a while - if you are very lucky - you come upon a novel so marvelous and enchanting and rare that you wish everyone in the world would read it, as well. The Good Thief is just such a book' -- Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love 'Tinti has written a lightening strike of a novel - beautiful and haunting and ever so bright. She is a twenty-first-century Robert Louis Stevenson' -- Junot Diaz 'Tinti is lavish with her storytelling gifts, which are prodigious' -- New York Times Book Review 'Reminds you why you fell in love with reading in the first place' -- Boston Globe
