  • "A fable for our time, The Woman and the Ape poses searching questions about the nature of love, freedom, and humanity. It combines the farcical humor of a Marx Brothers movie with the magic of a fairy tale and the pace of a thriller."
  • "Als er een liefdesrelatie opbloeit tussen een vrouw en een aap, dringt zich de vraag op waar de mens ophoudt en het dier begint."
  • "Madeline Burden, wife of a renowned British zoologist, decides to save a highly intelligent anthropoid ape from the scientists who would sacrifice his life to gain data about his intelligence."@en
  • "Remarkable story of the relationship of Madeline Burden, wife of a renowned British zoologist, and a stray ape in his laboratory. Somehow, she must free the ape from the scientists who would sacrifice his life to gain data about his intelligence. Part fable, part romance, and part slapstick comedy."@en
  • "In London, a housewife repays her scientist husband for making her life miserable by releasing an equally unhappy ape on which he was experimenting. Together they take off to a wildlife reserve where they have an affair and she teaches him to talk. Part comedy, part study of animal exploitation, by a Danish writer, author of Smilla's Sense of Snow."
  • "Lonely and disillusioned, Madelene Burden is a modern-day sleeping beauty drowsing in a alcoholic stupor. And the prince whose kiss brings her to life is 300-pound ape named Erasmus, the victim of a smuggling gone awry. Enthralling readers with the same taut prose, enigmatic characters, thrilling suspense, and satirical humor that drove "Smilla" to the top of bestseller lists, Hoeg offers a daring and imaginative fable that poses searching questions about the nature of romance."
