Rezensionen

'O'Neill's storytelling here has an enthralling fireside quality ... A book to sink into, in other words, and one not to be missed' Guardian

'A meticulously constructed marvel ... Nobody else's fiction tears up the ground quite like O'Neill's profoundly introspective novels ... his stories are marvels of narrative magic and stylistic panache ... Like Godwin, this novelist is a player whose charges and feints will leave you amazed - and defeated' Washington Post

'Delightful, funny ... rapidly told in masterful prose' Financial Times

'Erudite, wide-roving, politically engaged' Telegraph

'O'Neill is to privileged white guys in crisis what Sally Rooney is to young intellectuals in love... A new and moving take on his usual tale of masculine doom, which gives this deceptively light comic novel a subtly profound undertow...it's all enjoyable' The Times

'Absorbing ... picaresque' Vogue

'Exciting and incisive ... This has all the velocity and swerve of an unstoppable free kick' Publishers Weekly

'Minute, hilariously observed, and poignant ... replete with laugh-out-loud observations, gorgeously turned phrases, and exhilarating dialogue ... I wish there were more books like this' Elif Batuman, author of Either/Or

'A fantastic novel, brilliantly crafted, using such a clever lens to explore the world of football ... I loved it' Marcus du Sautoy, author of Around the World in 80 Games

'A comedic hunt for raw footballing talent in Africa explores a new kind of colonialism' Guardian

'Populous, lively and intellectually challenging' New York Times Book Review

'I didn't want it to end ... You absolutely have to read this ... What an achievement. Among the best novels I've read in a long time' Bill Buford, author of Among the Thug

'An astonishing marathon of storytelling' Kirkus Reviews

'An exercise in realism by one of its finer contemporary disciples' Vulture
