"Ogawa is original, elegant, very disturbing."—Hilary Mantel, author of WOLF HALL
Praise for The Housekeeper and the Professor:
"I've been telling everyone about this book. . . . It's a story about love, which is quite different from a love story. It's one of the most beautiful novels."—Junot Diaz
"Gorgeous, cinematic. . . This novel has all the charm and restraint of any by Ishiguro or Kenzaburo Oe, and the whimsy of Murakami."—Los Angeles Times
"Strangely charming, flecked with enough wit and mystery to keep us engaged throughout."—The Washington Post Book World
Praise for The Diving Pool:
"Still waters run dark in these bright yet eerie novellas, whose crisp, almost guileless prose hides unexpected menace."—The New York Times Book Review
"Exquisitly disturbing . . . Ogawa steadily builds the tension to an unexpected crescendo."—Elle
"Ogawa writes in a lean, muscular way that goes deep, exploring how malevolence coexists with everyday impulse. . . . She creates a memorable unease."—Los Angeles Times
