To round off 2013, there have been a couple of lovely articles about Tonke Dragt and The Letter for the King. Philip Womack wrote in Friday’s Guardian that “Tiuri’s search is gripping, delightful and true”. Meanwhile, over on the Dutch side of the water, Pjotr van Lenteren wrote this fine piece in de Volkskrant about Tonke Dragt, Pushkin Press, translated books, and the reception of The Letter for the King.
Here’s to Pushkin Press and to 2014! Cheers!
I finished the book yesterday and wanted to let you know that I really enjoyed reading it, thank you so much. You can see my highlights and comments on passages of the book here if you’re interested: https://readmill.com/adoran2/reads/the-letter-for-the-king
I hope it does really well for you.
Thanks very much, Andrew. That’s lovely to hear!
