Goodbye Mickey Mouse by Len Deighton
In Goodbye Mickey Mouse Len Deighton has written his best novel yet: a brilliant, multi-dimensional picture of what it is to be at war and what it was to be in love in the England of 1944.'It is a novel of memory, satisfying on every imaginable level, but truly astonishing in its recreation of a time and place through minute detailDeighton has written well of the air before, nonfictionally, and he informs us in an afterword that it took six years of research to do this novel. It shows. The only way you could know more about flying a P-51 Mustang, after reading this book, is to have flown one.' Washington Post
'He writes, as usual, with authority and a superb sense of period' Daily Telegraph
'The sheer charge of the writing swept me into another world all the while I was reading, and now that piece of the past is a piece in my mind.' HRF Keating, The Times
'A master of fictional espionage.' Daily Mail
'The poet of the spy story.' Sunday Times
'For sheer readability he has no peer' The Standard
