OUR STORE IS CLOSED ON ANZAC DAY: THURSDAY 25 APRIL
Anthony Quinn was born in Liverpool in 1964. Since 1998 he has been the film critic of the Independent. He is the author of The Rescue Man, which won the 2009 Authors' Club Best First Novel Award, Half of the Human Race, The Streets, which was shortlisted for the 2013 Walter Scott Prize, and Curtain Call.
Curtain Call is a wonderfully elegant, witty and self-aware novel, people by beautifully drawn, droll characters worthy of a Woody Allen film... This is an utterly delightful read, made to appear easy, effortless and brilliantly suspenseful, while never becoming predictable or cosy... I can't recommend this book highly enough. -- Viv Groskop Observer It had me on the edge of my seat. The only disappointment...is when the curtain finally has to come down. -- Peter Stanford, 5 stars Daily Telegraph Curtain Call is a beautifully written, absorbing work of historical fiction. -- James Kidd Independent This book is utterly pleasing from the first page to the last. -- Sadie Jones Guardian Curtain Call goes from gripping you lightly to gripping you tightly. Both in its construction and its characters there is more going on beneath the surface than first appears. -- Dominic Maxwell The Times
