Critics Review
In a spill of vivid and corruscating language… Alan Warner has emerged as a writer of great inventiveness
“In a spill of vivid and corruscating language… Alan Warner has emerged as a writer of great inventiveness” – Annie Proulx “Wonderful… humane, unique, a page-turner with a neat series of bombshells at the end” Daily Telegraph “Warner provides every nuance of the characters in a sustained tour de force… This is the most profound of Warner’s books. His sense of place and atmosphere remains extraordinarily intense” Guardian “Wonderful… Humane, unique, a page-turner with a neat series of bombshells at the end” Daily Telegraph “Wickedly funny… Warner can combine literary style with go-anywhere demotic humour… Like St Trinians with condoms and male nudity” Independent
