Rezensionen
'Not only one of the funniest books you will ever read, but true and poignant, too. Audra is one of the most memorable comic characters ever to leap from the pages of a book' Daily Mail

'I love this book. it reminds me slightly of my beloved Maria Semple and Norah Ephron' Nina Stibbe

'There is texture, intelligence, warmth and perspicacity that lifts it into the realms of Carol Shields or Curtis Sittenfeld. It plays in my head as a movie directed by Noah Baumbach or Nora Ephron ... I chuckled my way through Standard Deviation, but at times it made my heart ache' The Times

'I love Katherine Heiny's book and underlined so many funny observations that had me laughing out loud. Amazing' Emma Gannon

'Audra Daltry is a singular creation - a character so funny, so appealing, so sure that she can change the world for her family that she will jump right off the page and take up permanent residence in your heart' Kate Atkinson

'Brilliantly funny' India Knight

'Heiny's novel is a comic masterpiece and her Audra is the funniest heroine ever' Observer

So comedically spot on about middle-class mores it feels unnervingly like she's in your head. It's one of those books that people fervently press on you' Jenny Colgan, Spectator Books of the Year.

'Funny, fresh, with the kind of perceptive observations that make you see family life, friendship, parenting and marriage anew' Mail on Sunday

'Heiny's characters - charming, flawed, relatable, tragic, hilarious - are faultlessly constructed, lingering long in the memory like family or friends' Observer

'A book so funny and perceptive I want to be friends with its author' Laline Paull

'There are some painfully hilarious exchanges, but underlying the jokes is an emotionally intelligent dissection of conflicting inner worlds' Sunday Times

'Wonderful ... such a success' New York Times Book Review

'Both heart-piercing and, crucially, very funny' New York Times
