Penelope Lively recommends
 The Maid of Buttermere (1987) Melvyn Bragg "A vivid and erudite tour de force." |  An Experiment in Love (1995) Hilary Mantel "It is vivid. It is moving and entertaining in equal measures. Buy it and find out for yourself." |  Blame Hitler (1997) Julian Rathbone "A shrewd and intricate narrative by a skilful novelist." |
 Larry's Party (1997) Carol Shields "A brilliant fictional reflection on what it may be like to be a man in the late twentieth century." |  Heaven Forbid (2002) Christopher Hope "A potent rendering of childhood." |  Those Who Save Us (2004) Jenna Blum "I was much impressed. A powerful evocation of terrible events, moving and persuasive. A remarkable first novel, with memorable characters." |
 Only Human (2004) Susie Boyt "She has a deft touch... Boyt is a dab hand at dialogue... there is much here to enjoy." |  The Republic of Trees (2005) Sam Taylor "A bold debut . . . one wants to see what Taylor does next." |  22 Britannia Road (2011) Amanda Hodgkinson "A most accomplished first novel. Powerful story-telling and entirely convincing in its evocation of post-war England. Very good." |
