gift for turning tragedy into comedy, Heartburn is evidence that revenge is indeed a dish best served cold
[Ephron] chatters up a storm, always on the verge of wisecracking up - Guardian
What really interested Ephron, for all her clever writing about food, politics and overcluttered purses, were matters of the heart. She is the exact opposite of Dorothy Parker. She is wit without cynicism, the ultimate romantic -- Gail Collins - New York
Times
I have bought more copies of this book to give to people, in a frenzy of enthusiasm, than any other . . . Heartburn is the perfect, bittersweet, sobbingly funny, all-too-true confessional novel. There is not a wrong word - about food, marriage, life,
love, loss
Full of cynicism and gags, this autobiographical novel is comic writing at its finest -- Andrew Billen - The Times
Heartburn took the most miserable personal situation and made it hysterically funny, inspiring and utterly relatable to women of all ages. I became obsessed with its author and thinly disguised heroine - Stylist
Heartburn is as hilarious as it is heartbreaking and as brittle (very) as it is steely (even more)
It is snortingly funny in its depiction of the death throes of a relationship. And it bursts with recipes. What more could you ask for?
Not just the funniest novel ever written about divorce, but the funniest novel ever. Only the truly talented make writing as good as this look easy -- Hadley Freeman - The Week
I kept a copy of Nora Ephron's Heartburn next to me as a reminder of how to be funny and truthful, and all I ended up doing was ignoring my writing and rereading Heartburn -- Amy Poehler
The real magic of the novel comes from Ephron's nonchalant conversationalism -- Helen Rosner - New Yorker
Simply one of the greatest novels involving food ever written from the writer of When Harry Met Sally and Sleepless in Seattle. It's about love, sex, adultery and key lime pie -- Jay Rayner
This book taught me about love, loss and writing. It's a timeless classic - Independent
