Press on Yucca:

Terrin opts brazenly for literature, which produces a great deal that is beautiful. Yucca is a fascinating game with identities, a novel impossible to race through. – NRC Handelsblad

Yucca is a novel that cannot be summarized. Terrin’ work is reminiscent in that respect of the work of Haruki Murakami. Terrin is a conjurer of a similar calibre: in Yucca he conjures up reality with his pen, without revealing the secret. – Trouw

That’s what I appreciate so much about this versatile writer: that he can caress with such tenderness. You lose most beautifully if you’re one of Peter Terrin’s characters. – Humo


Press on Monte Carlo:

Craftsmanship and talent. Monte Carlo is a faultless, adroitly composed book, entertaining in the old-fashioned sense, with the precision of a Swiss watch. - De Standaard der Letteren

You don’t even need to make a list to see that Peter Terrin is one of the handful of truly interesting authors writing in Dutch. **** - NRC Handelsblad

A flawless novel. (...) Terrin proves himself more than deserving of his wide readership. (...) Monte Carlo is a small masterpiece. - De Tijd

Beautiful prose, poetic style.**** - Algemeen Dagblad

Elegant and pulling no punches (...) Terrin plays his sonata calmly and with poise. Right from the first sentence his fingers glide with assurance over the piano keys – the touch is unassuming, the listener has to stay alert in order to hear everything. - Humo

After the success of Post Mortem, Terrin raises the bar of Flemish literature slightly higher still with this jewel that glitters like a freshly cut diamond. Astonishingly perfect sentences and a composition of Swiss quality. - Knack

Press on The Guard:

This masterly surrealist study of contemporary society, by a Flemish original, is worthy of the great JG Ballard. – Irish Times

The Guard is a novel that leaves you astonished with its beauty and completeness. – NRC Handelsblad
