James Hawes has matured into a wonderful satirist...a comic novelist of considerable stature - Guardian
Comparisons with Evelyn Waugh are not misplaced - Sunday Telegraph
Highly entertaining...galloping, lucid prose. There's real enthusiasm here too...a witty anti-biography - Observer
Undeniably an exhilarating read. The heresy helps but so does Hawes's pacy, non-academic prose and his sharp eye for fascinating snippets of literary history - Daily Telegraph
A revelation and a scream, this wonderfully irreverent book ends up paying Kafka a greater compliment than that of the 'Kafka-myth', 5 stars - The Scotsman
... combination of zeal and cynicism is irresistible - Daily Telegraph.
As an Oxford undergraduate James Hawes saw and handled the original manuscript of The Castle. After taking a PhD on Nietzsche and Kafka, he held university lecture-ships at Maynooth, Sheffield and Swansea. He is the author of five novels, including A White Merc with Fins and White Powder, Green Light. His most recent novel, Speak For England (2005), was widely and enthusiastically reviewed. The BBC has commissioned Andrew Davies to re-work the novel for TV.
