Praise For This Book |
"Paula McLain is considered the new star of historical fiction, and for good reason. Fans of The Paris Wife will be captivated by Circling the Sun, which... is both beautifully written and utterly engrossing."-Ann Patchett, Country Living "Paula McLain cements herself as the writer of historical fictional memoir with Circling the Sun, giving vivid voice to Beryl Markham, a singular, extraordinary woman. In McLain's confident hands, Markham crackles to life, and we readers truly understand what made a woman so far ahead of her time believe she had the power to soar."-Jodi Picoult, author of Leaving Time "Enchanting... A worthy heir to [Isak] Dinesen, McLain will keep you from eating, sleeping, or checking your e-mail-though you might put these pages down just long enough to order airplane tickets to Nairobi.... What's certain is that the reluctantly earthbound armchair reader will cherish this gift for the hidden adventurer in all of us. Like Africa as it's so gorgeously depicted here, this novel will never let you go."-The Boston Globe "Famed aviator Beryl Markham is a novelist's dream.... [A] wonderful portrait of a complex woman who lived-defiantly-on her own terms."-People (Book of the Week) "Circling the Sun soars."-Newsday "Captivating... [an] irresistible novel."-The Seattle Times "Like its high-flying subject, Circling the Sun is audacious and glamorous and hard not to be drawn in by. Beryl Markham may have married more than once, but she was nobody's wife."-Entertainment Weekly |
