“ Perfect Wives in Ideal Homes
"As social history, it bears comparison with David Kynaston’s Family Britain. Nicholson has the same knack of seamlessly piecing gripping individual stories into a panorama of everyday life." ”
“ Millions Like Us
“It's hard to single out stories from this rich, entwined narrative, which moves in and out of the lives of an absorbing cast of characters... Vividly entertaining, uplifting and humbling, Millions Like Us deserves to be a bestseller...” ”
“ Singled Out
“It is high time to dig [this generation] up again, salute their memory and listen to their sad and uncomplaining voices unmuffled at last in Nicholson’s brave, humane and honest book.” ”
“ Among the Bohemians
“An extraordinarily rich, provocative study. [Nicholson’s] substantial cast is stage-managed superbly… This book is not just good fun. It raises profound questions about our lives.” ”
