Revue de presse :

"The current king of this genre" (The Times)

"Funny, honest and touching with engagingly mixed-up protagonists... realistic, but utterly uncynical" (Observer)

"A genuinely moral work of fiction about a subject - the confusions, joys and terrors of adolescent male sexuality - rarely addressed with any such comprehension or sympathy" (Evening Standard)

"Filth, which ever way you look at it" (Anne Fine)

"Refreshingly realistic and unsentimental approach to sex" (Time Out)
