Critical Praise

"A beauitiful and powerful novel that records one woman's experience while illuminating a world of imperial folly and colonial rapacity and stupidity."

——The Boston Globe

"Moore is a wonderful writer with a sensuous style. . . . [One Last Look] takes on the quality of a feverish dream."

——The Baltimore Sun

"How marvelous is a book that educates but does not preach. . . . [A] cautionary tale for smart women . . . and dumb men . . . but the beauty of the prose and the complexity of the narrative here far outweigh any edifying messages."

——The Washington Post

"Intriguing. . . . Moore . . . conjure[s] the heat and light and color of this hot, beautiful land, its smells and sensual allure. A compelling and richly textured story."

——The New York Times
