Adam Foulds's most recent books are In the Wolf’s Mouth, The Quickening Maze, which was shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and won the Encore Award and the European Union Prize for Literature, and The Broken Word, which won the Costa Poetry Award and the Somerset Maugham Award. He has recently been awarded the E.M. Forster Award by the American Academy of Arts and Letters and named as one of Granta’s ‘Best of Young British Novelists’.<b>Pitch-perfect</b> sentence by pitch-perfect sentence, Foulds weaves a quiet but harrowing tale of obsession that takes the reader into the characters’ tragic downward spiral – <b><i>Dream Sequence</i> is as good a novel as I have read in a while.</b>
- Lawrence Osborne, author of Beautiful Animals,
<b>Incisively well-written and alluringly readable</b>… This prose is <b>truly poetic, </b>being concise, not impasto… This novel <b>moves like a thriller</b>… <b>A terrific book </b>about the realities and delusion of fame distorting the way we live now:<b> not to be missed.</b>
Evening Standard
<b>Adam Foulds is the real deal</b>… it’s the details of the writing itself – the precision of the word selection combined with the precision of the observation – that make for such enjoyable reading.
- Edward Docx, Guardian
This <b>mordantly clever</b> story about fame, fantasy and narcissism… is <b>deliciously funny</b>… <b>Foulds is a very fine writer.</b>
- Johanna Thomas-Corr, Observer
An<b> exquisitely concocted, riveting </b>account of artistic ambition and unrequited love…<b> Foulds is proving himself to be a very versatile writer of intelligence and charm.</b>
