Rezensionen

Her last book, A Trip to the Light Fantastic, received extraordinarily good reviews:

'The most ambitiously imaginative sort of travel writing'
- Patrick Skene Catling

'Magic is at the heart of Hickman's narrative. Her characters would not seem out of place in the oeuvre of Gabriel Garcia Marquez or Isabel Allende'
- Sunday Times

'Mexico will not have been portrayed more vividly since Graham Greene's The Lawless Roads... Enchanting'
- Geoffrey Moorhouse, Daily Telegraph
