'Consistently brilliant. Every subtle, thought-provoking poetic moment in this novel fits on top of the last, creating a narrative as precarious and complex as a tower of building blocks. But this tower doesn't fall... One of the most exciting new writers around' -- Scarlett Thomas, Independent on Sunday
'A small masterpiece' -- Germaine Greer, BBC Newsnight Review
Nick McDonell is the real thing... I'm afraid that he will do for his generation what I did for mine., Hunter S. Thompson
