Review
"Yates writes with a sympathy so clear-hearted that it often feels like nostalgia for his own youth, and yet he is also thoroughly uncompromising in revealing their capacity for self-delusion, their bewilderment in the face of failure" (New York Times)
"So consistently well-written, just, unsentimental and sympathetic" (Washington Post)
"Read and weep" (Kate Atkinson)
"Yates's prose is as elegant and minimalist as ever... He simply tells the story - in easily comprehensible but perfectly pitched language" (Leyla Sanai www.rocksbackpagesblogs.com)
Book Description
