Caustic and entertaining * Sunday Times * Sharply observed and always entertaining * Independent * This is an impressive debut: a good story, well told, great characters, with sardonic, knowing digs at the youthful pretention...clever, wry and often hilarious * Time Out * Well-written, tremendously confident * Irish Independent * Characters that leap out at you like figures in a pop-up book. Joseph O'Connor's first novel suggests he is bound for fame * Observer *
