Summary

What They're Saying
Critics Review
Reads like a dream
Reads like a dream * Time Out *Tremendously enjoyable * Times Literary Supplement *Houellebecq captures the spirit of the age better than any other novelist, or any social historian, writing today * Literary Review *There is no other writer like him, at the moment, for wit, acuity or the transparent beauty of his prose. His themes are always big and bravely expounded * Spectator *What Houellebecq has in abundance is an ability to turn commonplace events into high comedy-I enjoyed [Lanzarote] enormously * Sunday Telegraph *Reading Houellebecq is like being caught up in a tropical storm: you are blown away by the ferocity of his imagination * Observer *
