It’s been ages since I was so absorbed in a contemporary novel. I loved it — Nick Hornby

In rich and sensuous prose, Cowley Heller, cracks open the human heart and exposes her character’s choices: the paths not taken and the devastating consequences.

A perceptive and powerful story which will stay with me for a long time — Claire Fuller, author of Unsettled Ground

Tightly woven and immediate, The Paper Palace takes us deep into a vivid summer landscape, a family, and a private, longstanding love story, and holds us there from start to finish — Meg Wolitzer, New York Times bestselling author of The Wife and The Female Persuasion

I can’t think of a more brilliant debut than The Paper Palace. Enticing, assured and multi-layered, it introduces a major new voice in American fiction . . . A marvel — Cressida Connolly

Absolutely phenomenal novel – dazzling writing and utterly addictive. Read it — Rosamund Lupton

It felt as if I read The Paper Palace in one go. It was completely immersive, and shocking, and utterly alive. I loved it — Nina Stibbe

This accomplished family saga is gripping and poetic, capturing the complexity of the human heart ― Daily Mirror
