‘The House at Tyneford’ is a bestseller!

Thanks so much to all the wonderful people at Plume (especially to Tara and Pam)! ‘The House at Tyneford’ has just debuted at no 29 on the NYT bestseller list. I’m so, so excited. It’s also at no 14 on the Indiebound list and at no 8 in the Boston Globe besteller list. It’s bedtime but I’m far too excited to sleep.

Here is a photo of a windswept Dorset seascape near Tyneham… no wonder I was inspired to write a novel set here.

And here is a picture of the real-life Landau girls, taken in Berlin in the 1920s.

I am only 1/3 of the way through this book and I LOVE IT !!!
Found it in a shop in the Denver airport yesterday and could hardly
put it down. Wonderful. You are an artist with words and the ability
to evoke memory the way you do is rare in literature. And I have read
thousands of books in my 66 years.

Wonderful book. Hard to put down. Absolutely beautifuly written.
It is amazing to read such a book from such a young author. The
best novelests I’ve read were also poets.

VERY, VERY good book — I loved it! It was so hard to put down and I was sad that it had to end. You are such a talented author — I just bought another one of your books, Mr. Rosenblum Dreams in English. Can’t wait to start it!
