"Sophisticated comedy-what gives it its distinction is the quality of observation and the unusual marriage of high spirits with melancholy awareness of the passing of time" * Scotsman * "Irresistible" * Literary Review * "An acute observer of manners and styles" * Independent * "Here is an imagination that effortlessly brings character after character to valiant, preposterous, malevolent or desperate life. Here is a writer who deserves to be far more widely read" * Spectator * "It has a lightness, a breadth... an impressive energy and a humane comedy... Entertaining and affecting" * Times Literary Supplement *
