&ldquo;Lyrically voices the generation-bridging tale of the De La Valle family and their Puerto Rican sugar mill through the eyes and souls of several family members, longtime servants and dear friends&hellip; With a majestic plot, nestled in the hills of those Guamani Mountains, along with the De La Valle family and their sugar mill, Ferr&eacute; exposes the secrets of a family and the glories of a country under pressure from American business threats. All at once, Sweet Diamond Dust explores the life of a family and of a business, through the generations and into our modern world.&rdquo;&mdash;Lucy Stark, Voices from the Gaps &#160; &ldquo;[Ferre] is a perfect embodiment of the Janus-like identity Puerto Rico emanates today, a mythical creature with two heads set back to back, impossibly &lsquo;loyal to two fatherlands,&rsquo; as the memorialist Bernardo Vega once put it.&rdquo;&mdash;Ilan Stavans, World Literature Today

&ldquo;Tamsin is a ghost story but, like anything else Beagle has written, transcends its genre. Beagle writes too sparingly for his fans, but he apparently cannot write a bad book.&rdquo;&mdash;The Orlando Sentinel&ldquo;Fantasy rarely dances through the imagination in more radiant garb than this.&rdquo;&mdash;Publishers Weekly (starred review)&ldquo;If you like ghost stories, if you like tales of boggles and boggarts and things that live just beyond our ken, then Tamsin will satisfy you completely. But be warned, Beagle's characters will stay in your heart forever, and he possesses the damnedest ability to make one cry by the end of the book. What reader can ask for more?&rdquo;&mdash;Crescent Blues&ldquo;With&hellip;Peter S. Beagle novels, you know that what you're getting is something that has been lovingly and painstakingly crafted, and thus to be cherished. Tamsin&hellip;stands as another high-water mark in a career consisting of practically nothing but. Smashing storytelling&hellip;Electrifying entertainment in every way, Tamsin blends mystery, history, and the hope of love that blooms its strongest when you're very young, into a novel sure to become as dear to readers' hearts as The Last Unicorn.&rdquo;&mdash;SF Reviews&ldquo;An appealing intermingling of history, folklore, and the supernatural.&rdquo;&mdash;Kirkus Reviews

Praise for Georges Simenon:&ldquo;One of the greatest writers of the twentieth century&#160;.&#160;.&#160;.

»…eine Feier des Lebens, der Leichtigkeit, Freude an Bewegung und natürlich der Freundschaft.« Verena Hoenig, Süddeutsche Zeitung, 5.11.2021

»›Ein Tag mit Freunden‹, so ruhig und klug und unaufgeregt, ist wie ein tiefes Durchatmen. Wie eine kleine Yoga-Übung, nach der man irgendwie entspannt ist und gar nicht richtig weiß, warum. Wie eine vollkommen unnervige Achtsamkeitsübung, die einen daran erinnert, den Moment zu genießen. Ein Bilderbuch, so schön, dass man es einfach haben muss und das ohne Zweifel das Zeug zum Klassiker hat!« Blog Juli liest, 9/2021

»…eine herrlich unaufgeregte Geschichte, die ganz nebenbei davon erzählt, wie aus Langeweile immer dann etwas Gutes erwachsen kann, wenn man mit ihr nicht alleine bleibt.« Nora Imlau auf Instagram @noraimlau, 3.9.2021

»Ein ganz wunderbares Bilderbuch (…). Die ruhige und angenehme, sogar leicht poetische Atmosphäre und eine bunt-detaillierte Wohlfühloptik lassen nur einen Schluss zu: So müssen Bilderbücher sein! Klasse!« Blog Damaris liest, 4.10.2021

»Philip Waechter erzählt unaufgeregt und mit feinem Humor von einem ›einfach tollen Tag‹.« LUCHS-Jury, DIE ZEIT, 2.12.2021
