Reviews

Amis's backwards world is rigorously imagined. It is a world of pathos and cruel hilarity - but the crux, the test of his vision, is what he does with Auschwitz
*Guardian*

The devastatingly sustained black irony stands comparison with Swift's A Modest Proposal. It is, I think, Amis's finest achievement to date
*Financial Times*

Extraordinary - Ironic inversion is essentially a comic device, but its trickery here yields results that are rigorously grave
*Independent on Sunday*

An icy, hard read - Amis is at his intriguing, powerful and heedful best
*Time Out*

Amis's most daring and ambitious novel
*Daily Telegraph*
