Rezensionen

"A wild romp," - Bookreporter.com

"Shriver said that her favourite novels are those that pack both an intellectual and emotional punch. With Should We Stay or Should We Go, she's added triumphantly to their number." - The Times (UK)

"Her best novel since The Post-Birthday World . . . . A return to form, merging Shriver's better instincts as both novelist and social critic." - Kirkus Reviews

"This sharp-elbowed satire is also a brusquely tender portrait of enduring love." - Washington Post

"A delight to read. . . . Wildly inventive and sometimes hilarious . . . Shriver may be a contrarian-but

she has a sense of humor about it. More to the point, she never lets her politics interfere with the sheer zest of her imagination." - Seattle Times

"I think Shriver's novels are wonderful . . . fun, smart and, perhaps because of their author's unconventional political views, unlike anything else you'll read." - Financial Times

"Shriver delivers on a high-concept premise full of alternative narratives based around themes of illness and aging. . . . Readers will be entranced by Shriver's freewheeling meditation on mortality and human agency." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Entertaining and poignant." - Daily Mail

"Very moving . . . Shriver has the magic ability to make the reader invested in the fate-fates, I should say-of her characters." - Daily Telegraph (London)
