- Tom Adair, Scotsman
Shady, crazy and dark.
Shortlist
Welsh doesn’t disappoint… Bag yourself a ringside seat.
- Elena Seymenliyska, Daily Telegraph
This is a visceral romp of a novel, a manic endorphin rush of a read that nevertheless also manages to sneak in some serious commentary on the state of American society, putting this book right up there with the best of Irvine Welsh’s work.
- Doug Johnstone, Independent on Sunday
Not only cleverly conceived but genuinely, hauntingly, transgressive.
- Sandra Newman, Guardian
Razor-sharp prose... Both Lucy and Lena dazzle in this hugely entertaining read.
- Kevin Scott, List
Boisterous, exuberant.
Sunday Times
A compelling read.
