‘What a gorgeous dream of a book Barme had produced…will resonate powerfully with any history lover. ’
— Sunday Express

‘...genial, neatly written…Barme narrates the intrigues, the eunuchs and the concubines.’
— Independent

‘The bewildering vastness and past imperialism of the Forbidden City come alive in Barme’s account. ’
— Glasgow Herald
