'Intriguing ... [Flusfeder's] eccentric, insightful meditations focus on fortune's favourites and its gulls throughout history' New Scientist 'Luck is a wonderful intermingling of the historic, philosophical and literary, with tales of the author and his engaging, complicated, extraordinary father. A joy' Philippe Sands 'An extraordinary collection of insights into luck, skilfully combining personal stories and historical studies into a partly random structure. It has a glorious unpredictability, producing a stimulating feeling of uncertainty about what the next gem will turn out to be' David Spiegelhalter 'Thrilling, intelligent and wilfully unique, with the bonus ball of being unexpectedly moving, David Flusfeder's thirteen investigations are the result of a lifetime of original thinking. I loved it' James Runcie 'This deep, particular and witty examination of the nature of luck and its role in human existence is an absolute joy, from random start to mysterious finish. A most unusual book' Louisa Young
