Reviews for Stitch
This exceptional short novel is indebted to Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein… This adventure, with danger, a chase and daring deeds, is skillfully told, convincingly evoked and structured with revelations that compel you to read on. It has clarity, pathos and humour and above all it makes us care about the characters and their connection to each other.
