Review:
"Compulsively readable yet deeply disturbing. . . . To read Engleby is to be carried in the arms of a master." --The Denver Post"A cold, clever book about a cold, clever character. . . . Sebastian Faulks will soon be known as one of the most versatile writers at work today-and one of the most entertaining." --The New York Observer "Beware: Engleby is no ordinary whodunit. . . . With artistry and skill, [Faulks] turns a would-be murder mystery into a meditation on consciousness." --The Washington Post"Engleby himself-funny, fiercely intelligent, unreliable, arrogant and solipsistic-is an intriguing . . . mesmerizing creation." --San Francisco Chronicle "Engleby is a verbal performance, and Faulks jacks up the degree of difficulty by choosing to impersonate a brilliant, manic young sociopath. . . . Dazzlingly ironic, Nabokovian modernism." --The New York Times
From the Publisher:
Sebastian Faulks’s new novel is a bolt from the blue, unlike anything he has written before: contemporary, demotic, heart-wrenching – and funny, in the deepest shade of black.
