"The movement between the timelines [in The Lost Tarot], and the revelations in each [timeline], are dazzling, the sort of writing that bears lingering over while also virtually forcing the reader to plunge ahead." —Toronto Star
"Sarah Henstra writes gorgeously: her words are poetic, precise, vibrant; more importantly, they cast a magical net over the reader and draw them in tight. The Lost Tarot is offbeat, quirky and powerfully beguiling—a glittering treasure of a book. I absolutely loved it." —Jane Johnson, bestselling author of The Sea Gate and The White Hare
"So much to ponder over in Sarah Henstra's latest novel where secrets are stumbled upon and untwined: Art and the Occult, Surrealism and the magic of Seeing. Written in dazzling prose, The Lost Tarot probes the very essence of creation." —Eva Stachniak, author of The School of Mirrors
"This intriguing novel takes us into an artworld in which the surrealists were painting women as dolls and puppets. . . . Part-quest, part-aesthetic reflection, Henstra's fiction reveals the stories hidden beneath the artist's brush stroke. A fascinating read." —Kim Echlin, author of Speak, Silence
"Splendid, spirited and full of transformative magic, Sarah Henstra's The Lost Tarot entangles mysteries of academia, artmaking and the occult with a thoughtful meditation on seeing in a sinister and astonishing world. It weaves a twisty and engrossing web. I couldn't put it down!" —Catherine Bush, author of Accusation and Blaze Island
