"Superb... weaves winningly between the present and the second
world war, between Tangiers and Paris."
*Observer*
"`[Paris Echo is] brimming with Faulks’s deep affection for Paris.
His outsider’s interest in quirky street names and quaint corners
transports his readers there too. And in the end, the book is
powered by his ambition to evoke that place, its ghostliness, those
spectres of history, lurking around every beautiful avenue"
*Guardian*
"A brilliantly plotted and occasionally hallucinatory novel, in
which the author's genius for literary ventriloquism is shown off
to startling effect."
*New Statesman*
"Paris Echo doesn’t disappoint… Faulks is doing what he does best,
marrying careful historical research with a good ear for
dialogue"
*The Times*
"[An] exquisite book... a deeply affecting, wholly unsolemn
treatment of some of the 20th century's darkest moments."
*Daily Mail*
