Francesca Piredda Book Launch

Bambina by Francesca Piredda

“… a swirl of colour…
A delicious entry into passion.”
(The Globe and Mail)

“Witty and fun… sharply observed detail… a strong appealing voice.”
(The Montreal Gazette)

“A sparkling mind illuminates a colourful city and an intriguing adolescence.”
(Tim Parks,Europa, Booker finalist)

“As unique as it is enchanting. Eugenia, Francesca Piredda’s protagonist,
is an astonishing creation.”
(Patricia Young, Airstream)

“…innocent and sly, cynical and enamoured, disenchanted and full of
wonder, Eugenia takes us with her on her ‘sentimental education’,
a voyage as rich and varied as life itself.”
(Gilbert Reid, So This is Love)
