Autorenporträt
Jon McGregor
Rezensionen
'A rare combination of profound empathy and wonderful writing' Mark Haddon

'A breathtakingly good writer' The Times

'Absolutely outstanding ... an incredible book' Colum McCann

'Jon McGregor treads with unflinching respect through the debris of this dead man's home ... a short, brilliant and beautiful lesson in empathy' Daily Mail

'Unmissable ... McGregor's prose is unflinching yet luminous' Guardian

'Set in a desolate urban winter landscape, this is a powerful portrait of homelessness, violence and despair on the fringes of society' Mail on Sunday

'A taut tale that packs an extraordinary emotional punch ... animated with such tenderness and empathy that it never becomes oppressive ... An important book' Daily Telegraph

'Astonishing ... Profound and humane ... McGregor has achieved many miracles in this book ... A brave, masterful novel' Irish Times

'It is a work of art as well as a subtle polemic, but above all his graceful, vivid prose conveys an eerie reality, existence as endured by the marginalised ... the narrative is cinematic, creating the illusion of a camera sweeping over the horrors ... Here is a brave, masterful novel that lives and weeps and, most emphatically, tells the stories behind those faces that no one seems to see' Eileen Batersby, Irish Times

'His reportorial absorption in the characters' world, with its restricted range of tone and incident, makes this powerful novel seem all the more resourcefully put together' Guardian

'Even the Dogs submerges the reader in the world of the marginalised and dispossessed, of begging, stealing, cheating for the next meal, the next bottle, the next fix ... A world we all know exists, but seldom touch' Scotland on Sunday

'McGregor has the ability to give voice to unexplored aspects of our everyday lives. Here, he serves up a compelling exploration of the lives of a loose community of drug addicts and down-and-outs' Sunday Times
