Review
"Fascinating tales, sharply revealed characters, a fine narrative craft" (J.B. Priestley)
"He was a superb storyteller - one of the very best in our language - who wrote with a wordly, sardonic understanding of the human condition. Writing was his life; everything else was secondary to it" (Daily Mail)
