Pandora

There is enough plot for several novels here (enough sex for dozens), all vividly conveyed in the author's excitable style... Her many fans will not be disappointed

Literary Review

A new Jilly Cooper novel guarantees a great summer for everyone... She tells a marvellous story with total conviction, and also hooks the reader from the first page. Her latest, an irreverant look at the international art world is full of fun and sex - and quite unputdownable. This is Jilly at her irrepressible best

Publishing News

Open the covers of Jilly Cooper's latest novel and you lift the lid of a Pandora's box. From the pages flies a host of delicious and deadly vices... Cooper's sheer exuberance and energy are contagious... Cooper fans will be waiting eagerly for the next novel

The Times

One reads her for her joie de vivre, her maudlin romanticism, her love of arty references and her razor sharp sense of humour. Oh, and the sex

New Statesman

Cooper is astute when describing the complex relationships between men and women. She's also on the nail when it comes to teenage-speak and can bring the English countryside alive more deftly than many literary stars... She's irresistible... Like Harvey Nicks and the promise of romantic dalliance, she frees you from the daily drudge and deposits you in an alternative universe where love, sex and laughter rule

Independent on Sunday

The whole thing is a riot - vastly superior to anything else in a glossy cover

Daily Telegraph

Pandora is a smart portrait of the venal, greedy and pretentious underbelly of the high art scene... Most impressive is [Cooper's] gift for crowd scenes... Cooper moves her cast about in ways that elaborate their characters, fuel the plot and ensure that set pieces are never boring

Irish Independent

Pandora is the best book Jilly has produced since Rivals... the action is priceless

Sunday Express

Triumphantly good

The Sunday Times

The prospect of Jilly's return, with a novel set in the glamorous international art world and promising "oodles of bad behaviour, intrigue, passion, tears and laughter", will surely cheer all but the most misanthropic

Bookseller

This is Jilly in top form with her most sparkling novel to date
