‘Try these short stories which, at their best, have a satiric focus and punch absent from the rest of the contemporary scene'
Nicholas Lezard, Guardian

Financial Times
‘A perversely colourful, delightful triumph'
Time Out
‘The stories are at times funny, at times bizarre, at times caustic, but always readable'
