Reviews for Horace
d'Lacey has shown in the past that he has a brilliant ear for domestic dialogue, and that's on display once again in this surefooted account of what happens when a boy acquires a teddy bear worth thousands of pounds. I thoroughly enjoyed it and hope it gets the attention it deserves
