Praise for Joanna Trollope and
Other People’s Children
‘Simply reach for any novel by Joanna Trollope: To do so is to put your finger on the very pulse of Western Civilization – its passions, its concerns, its trends.’
The Globe and Mail
‘We grow attached to her characters whose weaknesses – and triumphs – are our own.’
The Gazette
‘A gripping read – as shrewdly observant of psychological and domestic detail as anything she has written.’
Daily Telegraph
‘Trollope has shown herself capable of such emotional depth, that although you turn the pages quickly, it is with trembling fingers.’
The Times
‘A skilled artisan of nuance and insight reveals a vigorous new edge as she explores the painful and contentious arena of stepfamilies.’
Publishers Weekly
‘Trollope is never boring or predictable. She gets to the heart of her characters and paints their frailties with the same loving strokes as their strengths. She imbues touchy subjects with a soothing gilt of normality while at the same time molding the most ordinary of topics into wonderfully provocative portraits of modern life.’

‘Perceptive, funny and original, Other People’s Children should cement her reputation.’
