Review:
"It is written with lovely, controlled precision. His descriptions deliver little aesthetic shock-charges of pleasure...There are delights of simple recognition-but there are also deeper emotional depth-charges" (Sunday Telegraph)

"Striking...The Book Against God is a gifted and winning first novel, neatly knotted at the end" (Guardian)

"Thought-provoking and full of sharp-eyed observations of characters and places" (Daily Mail)

"At once hilarious and haunting... It keeps your attention in every sentence" (Bernard O'Donoghue Irish Times)

"A work of skilful craftsmanship, which teasingly engages and disengages one's sympathies" (The Economist)
Book Description:
Now reissued in Vintage paperback alongside the Cape edition of Wood's new novel Upstate – 'Highly intelligent... This is a book that I shall certainly reread, for its comic realism, its warm intelligence, its lack of pretension' A. N. Wilson, Daily Telegraph
