Critics Review
-
A book to treasure. It’s classic Maeve Binchy territory, filled with characteristic warmth and captivating storytelling
HELLO -
Set in a country house hotel on the West coast of Ireland it’s full of her trademark warmth, humour and lovable characters
WOMAN -
Binchy’s compassion and warmth are undimmed … Over her long career as a novelist she tackled many serious issues with the compassion, intelligence and wit that anyone who ever read her wonderful journalism would expect. … All the characters in A Week in Winter are struggling – with traumatic memories, with isolation, with regret. Yet Binchy guides her creations through their troubles with a firm and kind hand, leaving them ready for a happier future. Maybe that’s why so many readers loved her so much. That and the fact that she always knew how to tell a very good story
IRISH TIMES -
This is a book designed to be read in a dark January chill; it begs for a fireside and the sound of wind and rain howling outside … If you haven’t come across her before, you’ve got a real treat in store
THE LADY -
It is no exaggeration to say that Maeve and her books were loved. Deservedly so. A Week in Winter is shot through with her trademark charm … here is an author who had a zest for life
BELFAST TELEGRAPH -
Warm, witty and with a deep understanding of what makes us tick, it’s little wonder that Maeve Binchy’s bewitching stories have become world-beaters
