Críticas:

"A tightly woven, atmospheric thriller about a New England academic whose life goes off the rails." --People

"Part of a grand literary tradition . . . Greene's plot has the tight, relentless pacing of a fine detective novel . . . Deeply felt . . . and utterly absorbing." --The Washington Post

"Had me hooked from page one . . . This wise, tender, and gracefully executed literary thriller will no doubt bewitch you too." --Redbook

"Haunting . . . twists back in time through love, grief, betrayal, and love again." --Good Housekeeping

"A truly remarkable novel." --Richard Russo, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Empire Falls

"An accomplished and artful storyteller, Greene has surprises in store as he unspools a plot that becomes as poignant as it is unpredictable." --Wally Lamb, New York Times bestselling author of We Are Water

"Greene's genre-bending novel of madness and despair evokes both the predatory lasciviousness of Nabokov's classic, Lolita, and the anxious ambiguity of Gillian Flynn's contemporary thriller, Gone Girl (2012)." --Booklist

"Nothing is what it appears in this brilliant story of a life gone awry ... The author's true intentions make this tale even more remarkable, for the book is, at its core, a trenchant examination of one family's terrible loss and how the aftermath of tragedy can make or break a person's soul." --Publishers Weekly

"Greene has created a brilliant, harrowing novel depicting the spectacular unraveling of a once distinguished and proudly successful man. He has also conceived one of the most convincingly drawn unreliable narrators that readers may ever meet, a character recalling the creations of Edgar Allan Poe . . . This is a riveting psychological novel about loss and the terrible mistakes and compromises one can make in love and marriage. Essential for fans of literary fiction." --Library Journal (Starred Review)

"A moving testament to the vicissitudes of love and loss, regret and hope." --Kirkus

"Incredibly beautiful and compulsively readable, The Headmaster's Wife will keep you mesmerized into the wee hours. A master storyteller, Greene's biggest achievement is proving that the most complex mystery of all is how and why we love." --Kimberly McCreight, New York Times bestselling author of Reconstructing Amelia

"I devoured this book. It has all the hooks - a mystery, a marriage, an investigation, a loss, a close-up of a society I'm not privy to--and yet, at its heart, there are unexpected love stories embedded within. Thomas Christopher Greene is a wonderfully accomplished novelist, and The Headmaster's Wife is both psychologically complex and wickedly fast-paced." --Julianna Baggott, New York Times bestselling author of Pure
