Recensione
'A well-crafted tale told with a wry smile...connoisseurs of gallows humour will recognise a master of the genre' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH
'An honest, intimate appraisal of a writer in the final chapter of his life...a fitting tribute to a fine author' WHAT'S ON IN LONDON
'Funny, elegant and reflective, energetically leaping the sad end feared by Pota' TIME OUT
'A posthumous piece of caustic self-parody [and] one last hurrah from a writer who knows his place in the authorial Hall of Fame was never in doubt' OBSERVER
'As narcissistically and teasingly self-referential as any by Philip Roth..full of sprightly jokes and arresting aphorisms' SPECTATOR
'Elegiac yet oddly joyful' THE SCOTSMAN
'Funny, poignant, wise and written with effortless elegance...There could be no finer addition to Heller's legacy' DAILY MAIL
