Review: "Scabrous, gutsy and scathing" (The Times)

"Obscenely outrageous and yet brilliantly reflective of a paranoid reality that has become universal. It is the best of Roth, a kind of coda to all his fiction so far" (Harold Bloom New York Times Book Review)

"This fitting capstone to Roth's Zuckerman trilogy proves that no one now writing can be funnier and more passionately serious than Philip Roth" (The Times)

"A black fable about the lies and fictions which are the life blood of both politics and literature" (Sunday Times)
