Guterson, David, New York Times Book Review: "'The Concubine's Children' gives readers far more than just another shading of the truth. Beautiful, haunting and wise, it lingers in the mind like a portrait one returns to often in a family album, and elicits the same mysterious response of love, melancholy and pride." |
