'Hugely - gigantically - enjoyable ... One of the most entertaining, fluent and readable novelists around' Observer. (Observer)

'Dark and very funny satire on second-home owners' Observer. (Observer)

'A terrific book-group choice ... Playful, inventive and very much of its time' Cressida Connolly, Spectator. (Spectator)

'Sharp, neat, well written and darkly comic' Seven magazine (Sunday Telegraph). (Sunday Telegraph)
