Tingle Alley describes the allure of Nicole Krauss’s History of Love (I still haven’t bought a copy!).

As Tingle Alley continues in work hyperdrive, Nicole Krauss’ History of Love is calling from the TBR pile. Its call sounds something like this: ‘Yoohoo, CAAF! Tuck me under your arm and let’s board a bus for Las Vegas ‘ P.S. Don’t forget the afghan.’ The book has received warm praise from astute critics Claire Messud (via TEV) and Emma Garman, Maud has assured me it’s fantastic, and nothing Laura Miller said here convinced me otherwise (was I the only one who found that review offputting?).
