Reseña del editor:
INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
"An extraordinary novelist.... Messud's ending is a triumph, pitch perfect. Nora's frustration is grating, the way real-life frustration is. But in this novel, frustration makes way for something new, something beautiful."
--"The Gazette"
"A compelling new cerebral melodrama.... Messud is a sharp, nuanced storyteller.... Messud's Nora is an original--a caustic vessel for exploring obsession, dependence, loneliness and creative expression.... The novel's resolution...packs a quiet, shocking, but satisfying wallop."
--"Maclean's"
"In Nora, Messud has produced a clear-eyed, unsentimental and compelling portrait of an ordinary person quietly revealing their faults, uncertainties and insecurities.... Messud is a breathtaking writer--exemplified in the way she brings even the most peripheral characters to life in one swift, all-encompassing stroke.... "The Woman Upstairs" is ultimately a beautiful--and beautifully sustained--howl of fresh, fierce, furious rage."
--"The Independent"
