Review
"This is true experimental writing: careless of taboo, teeming with ideas, elusive yet utterly controlled." GUARDIAN "Demanding and rewarding, lyrical and vernacular, smart and entertaining." TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT "Outstanding. It is rather as though David Lynch has been let loose on the set of a drawing-room comedy." THE TIMES"
