Reviews for Little Herr Friedmann And Other Stories

Ingenious and original... A cracking good yarn fizzing with intelligence. Philip Pullman The End of Mr. Y is a masterpiece... A brilliant, engaging story that in the end makes you rethink the nature of existence and the true structure of the world. Douglas Coupland One of the most exciting novels I have read in recent years. Jonathan Coe Mindboggling brainy and playful The End of Mr Y deserves to make [Scarlett Thomas] better known at last. Independent on Sunday Smart, stylish and dizzying... with a breakneck thriller of a plot... should appeal to a wide popular audience. New York Times Book Review
