Críticas:
The book's triumph is Nora's voice. Strangely but mesmerisingly combining dreamy musings and memories with a tenacious quest for the truth, her first-person story leaves you continually uncertain whether it is innocently incomplete, actively distortional or entirely reliable (Sunday Times)
Under the Harrow has been prompting word-of-mouth enthusiasm and it's easy to see why.. Berry transfixes the reader... rarely has the device of the unreliable narrator been used so effectively. (THE GUARDIAN)
In carefully measured prose, at once spare and haunting, Nora's obsession with finding the truth drives her on, and the reader must go with her (SUNDAY TIMES)
Once I started reading Under the Harrow, I couldn't stop. It's like Broadchurch written by Elena Ferrante. I've been telling all my friends to read it-the highest compliment. Flynn Berry is a deeply interesting writer (Claire Messud, author of THE EMPEROR'S CHILDREN and THE WOMAN UPSTAIRS)
Under the Harrow is a compulsively readable and atmospheric novel that I consumed almost in one sitting. The portrayal of the two sisters is subtle, original, and compelling (Rosamund Lupton, author of SISTER)
Flynn Berry's writing is clear and spare yet textured and instantly immersive. You know from the get-go that something is not quite right, and this sense of unease and mystery grows and grows as you discover more about Nora's complex relationship with her sister. I read Under the Harrow very quickly and when I wasn't reading it I was thinking about it (Harriet Lane, author of HER and ALYS, ALWAYS)
What grabbed me by the bones and hurled me through this read-in-one-sitting novel wasn't the plot, as compelling and tenacious and suspenseful as it is. Rather, it was Flynn Berry's perfect, unrelenting prose. This is flawless storytelling (Jill Alexander Essbaum, author of HAUSFRAU)
A nail-biter that fans of Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train will no doubt love, Under the Harrow is swiftly carried along by a momentum of unraveling certainties that ramp up with every page, building to the end's thrilling crescendo. I loved this dark, chilling book and couldn't put it down (Suzanne Rindell, author of THE OTHER TYPIST)
I read Under the Harrow through the night-I couldn't put it down. Berry's deft touch with atmosphere and emotion are sure to make this a stand out (Alex Marwood, author of THE WICKED GIRLS and THE KILLER NEXT DOOR)
[A] compulsively readable novel of psychological suspense, narrated in a striking, original voice (NEW YORK TIMES - 9 Thrillers that TIMES Editors Think You Should Read this Summer)
