Omschrijving
Impossible to put down . . . enthralling
Impossible to put down . . . enthralling
Extremely funny . . . and wise
A page-turning plot and rich, funny characters with several big laughs on every page . . . Hornby's best yet
Hornby pins down the age in which we live with precision and comic brilliance
Hugely enjoyable
Masterful . . . some of the finest writing, and some of the most outstanding characters I've ever had the pleasure of reading
Hornby's portrayal of four characters who accidentally meet on top of a tower block, all ready to jump to their death on New Year's Eve, manages to be sensitive and empathetic, but damn funny as well. My new Hornby favourite
Brilliant, smart and funny . . . a cello suite about how to go on living. It's hard to imagine a novel more darkly and sublimely devoted to life
Generous and wise. Right from the opening pages, a smile played continually across my face
