What They're Saying
Critics Review
A superb creation, exploding with cheerful chauvinism and black Celtic humour… You finish the book, hungry for more * The Times *
While recognising that we have all sat po-faced through novels which other people have assured us are hilarious… all I can say is that The Snapper creased me up * Guardian *
Not since I first delved into Flann O’Brian have I so consistently laughed out loud while reading a book * Sunday Tribune *
