Review:
"Savagely funny, startlingly original" (The Times)
"One of the most inventive authors around" (Heat)
"Oh, how we love Dan Rhodes . . . Reliably odd but fabulous" (Guardian)
"Rhodes is that real, rare thing - a natural storyteller" (Sunday Times)
"My favourite writer who isn't dead" (STEWART LEE)
"A literary treasure" (LOUIS DE BERNIERES)
"Dan Rhodes is a true original, with a fresh, funny, quirky style that seems to owe nothing to other writers and everything to his own powers of invention" (HILARY MANTEL)
"Marriage, in these stories, is a process that reveals glaring blind spots in relationships, to comic, tragic and sometimes bizarre effect." (Ted Hodgkinson Granta 2013-02-26)
"Few writers can match Rhodes gag for gag; fewer still can match his effortless creation of a fully realised fictional universe." (Stuart Evers Daily Telegraph 2013-03-02)
"Rhodes's gift is to sketch a situation deadpan, and to imply the world it arises from. Taken individually, many of them could be the script for a gag cartoon or a bit in a standup routine, but in aggregate, they build up to a worldview: quirky, jaded, and yet strangely tender. They provoke a curdled eye-boggle of recognition, a yelp of laughter, a groan.. or - the best of them - a sense of restrained but accepting melancholy" (Sam Leith The Guardian 2013-02-08)
