‘Excited me more than anything else I’ve read this year’ ANTHONY BURGESS

‘A long, handsome ingenious novel about war and peace, very funny, very sad, full of closely seen, closely thought detail, wise exotic and entertaining.’ IRIS MURDOCH

The mid-life crisis, with its fumblings, fudgings and miraculous accidents of self-knowledge, has seldom been better portrayed’. OBSERVER

‘Brian Aldiss works with such zest and gaiety.’ NINA BAWDEN

‘Full of goodies… funny, human, tough, irresistibly lively.’ FINANCIAL TIMES
