Review:
"Tom Sharpe has now turned his weapons of comic destructiveness onto that sitting target or lame duck: the literary world" (Observer)
"Mr Sharpe constructs his plot with immense care. He also, more to the point, has a nice line in lewd jokes. I understand that this sort of thing isn't to everybody's taste, but I laughed out loud" (Guy Bellamy Punch)
"Individual blend of robust farce and deeply cutting satire" (The Listener)
"Tom Sharpe is the funniest novelist writing today" (Philip Howard The Times)
