Media Reviews
"Amin's personality emerges from this novel as extraordinarily vivid, a far more complex and knowing individual than the normal depiction of comic-opera buffoon. As the novel progresses you understand how a weak character like Garrigan would be seduced and made powerless by such sheer force of personality....[Foden] has written an audacious, shrewd and spirited first novel."
