Review

Beguiling...Set in a jollier dystopia than the norm, it tells the tale of “Q”, a cryptographer who takes refuge from the madding crowd in Cornwall - Observer

A knockabout satire with twists aplenty - Mail on Sunday

The future might look bleak, but Bernière’s dystopia is replete with obscure charm, endearing personalities and flights of fantasy - SAGA, Book of the Month

Heaps of old-fashioned adventure - The Times

In a career that began with a magic realism-inspired Latin American trilogy, took off with the historical romance Captain Corelli’s Mandolin, and has gone down such byways as Red Dog, a rather heartwarming tale of an Australian sheepdog, and Notwithstanding, a collection of determinedly eccentric stories of English village life, De Bernières has shown himself to be full of surprises, conjuring narratives of considerable charm and impressive sweep. - Guardian
