Adolygiad y Cyhoeddwr / Publisher Review
'A feminist, magic-realist trip through the Arab Spring' The Spectator 'Temelkuran has zest, and heart, and guts, to spare... a beach-read with brains and bounce' Boyd Tonkin 'If you can’t think of a better road story than Thelma and Louise, you should read this novel' Özlem Ezer
