The Schooldays of Jesus by Jm Coetzee
From the double Booker Prize-winning author of Disgrace, an astonishing novel of new beginnings and the troubles of youth. 'Brilliant...
Compelling, often very funny, full of sudden depths * Observer *
Brilliant..tenaciously absorbing * Daily Telegraph *
It is written with the coolness and limpidity that makes Coetzee a master... There were moments where I found it almost too affecting to read -- David Sexton * Evening Standard *
It’s compulsively enigmatic but surprisingly funny too. * Metro *
Coetzee doesn't want to be understood, or explained. He wants, merely, to be read. The Schooldays of Jesus is, indeed, very readable * The Times *
