Review:
'A high-adrenalin story packed with more wit and invention in a single paragraph than many a respected English novel' Independent 'Hilarious. A talented entertainer with a beady eye for the absurdities of culture shock' Guardian 'Boyle has a fine descriptive eye and peoples the novel with wonderfully absurd characters' Time Out
