Compelling and believable characters...pacy and brusque - SpectatorDarkly humourous...[an] eccentric, bleak and wonderfully self-assured novel. - Daily TelegraphLike a psychopathic ringmaster in a circus, Sayle ushers in his cast of characters...He makes them perform their surreal little dance, about vengeance, and guilt, and the casual brutality of life, and then, with a shrug, he feeds them to the lions. - Independent
