Reviews

At last an unprintable book that is fit to read

—— Ezra Pound

A momentous event in the history of modern writing

—— Samuel Beckett

One of the ten or twenty great novels of our century, a revolution in consciousness equal to The Sun Also Rises

—— Norman Mailer

Read him for five pages, ten pages, and you feel the peculiar relief that comes not so much from understanding as from being understood. 'He knows all about me,' you feel; 'he wrote this especially for me'. It is as though you could hear a voice speaking to you, a friendly American voice, with no humbug in it, no moral purpose, merely an implicit assumption that we are all alike

—— George Orwell

The book that forever changed the way American literature would be written

—— Erica Jong

Lots of sex and gripping story lines

—— Sun

Full of emotional angst, scorching love scenes, and a compelling storyline

—— Dear Author

They are powerful, sexy and unputdownable

—— Victoria Loves Books

Boldly passionate, scorchingly sexy

—— Booklist

Sophisticated, engaging, clever and sweet

—— Irish Independent

Indulgent fantasy at its most enjoyable

—— Shelf Awareness
