Critical Praise

"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

"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

"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
