"Gorz's writing here is painstaking in its honesty, utterly without sentimentality but full of genuine passion. 'Like the very best books,' writes the translator in her afterword, 'Letter to D will break your heart.'" London Review of Books
"That one 75-page missive could eclipse the seminal work of an intellectual who impressed even the great Jean-Paul Sartre says something about the power and resonance of this passionate and soul-searching homage to his English wife Dorine." Wigan Evening Post
"Gorz wants to extract the 'poison' from his previous depiction of Dorine in his first published work. To set the record straight, the fragile, clingy girl of The Traitor is replaced here by an intelligent, vivacious woman on whom he is totally dependent: 'You opened up the richness of life for me and I loved life through you.' The book's conclusion - knowing that a year later Gorz and Dorine committed suicide together - is guaranteed to bring a lump to the throat." Times Literary Supplement
"A love letter of such exquisite poignancy that it has now come to define the man." Lancashire Evening Post
"Gorz's admiration for his wife's strength of purpose and character, her resolve throughout her long illness, her style, her beauty and her commitment to him are likely to make even the most stern-hearted of readers lachrymose." Good Web Guide

It is not surprising this intimate love-letter has struck a greater chord in Gorz's adopted country than all of his other fine intellectual works of philosophy." Courier Mail
"Little gem of a love story." Sunday Telegraph
"The heartbreaking postscript caps off a captivating snapshot of a grand love." Sunday Mail
"Andre was one of the 20th century's leading philosophers, but none of his words resonate deeper than this moving read ... In these days of email, letter writing has become a lost art.

"Gorz lays bare his heart for his beloved Dorine ... a love at first sight that turned into a lifetime of love and companionship, which Gorz writes about here with great reverence and beauty." Sunday Mail
