Critic Reviews

'Wonderfully funny.' (Daily Mail)
'The Ex-Wives marries comedy and canniness into a novel that’s warm, tolerant, shrewd and exuberant.' (Sunday Times)
'Deborah Moggach is brilliant at capturing just the right voice for her characters.' (Cosmopolitan)
'Cracking good dialogue, excellent jokes and laser-sharp aperçus. It is meant as a compliment when I say that she is like a female Kingsley Amis.' (The Daily Telegraph)
