Critics Review

[Welsh] has never written with greater verve… This is a novel packed with energy. – Tom Adair * Scotsman *Shady, crazy and dark. * Shortlist *Welsh doesn’t disappoint… Bag yourself a ringside seat. – Elena Seymenliyska * Daily Telegraph *This is a visceral romp of a novel, a manic endorphin rush of a read that nevertheless also manages to sneak in some serious commentary on the state of American society, putting this book right up there with the best of Irvine Welsh’s work. – Doug Johnstone * Independent on Sunday *Not only cleverly conceived but genuinely, hauntingly, transgressive. – Sandra Newman * Guardian *Razor-sharp prose… Both Lucy and Lena dazzle in this hugely entertaining read. – Kevin Scott * List *Boisterous, exuberant. * Sunday Times *A compelling read. – Russell Leadbetter * Glasgow Sunday Herald *
