Happy Like Murderers by Gordon Burn

Happy Like Murderers by Gordon Burn

'With his forensic commitment to get behind the tabloid headlines. Burn brilliantly reinvents reportorial writing. Startlingly original.' Matt Seaton, Esquire 'Long, brilliant, horrifying. Burn has researched with great care every detail (my God, the detail) of what went on in the Wests' household over decades.' Libby Purves, The Times 'Brilliant, bleak, unflinching. Layer after layer, level after level, deeper and deeper, until, at last, a picture is constructed. His interpretations make sense. They feel right. They explain the inexplicable.' Deborah Orr, Guardian
