It?s the best book I?ve read for ages. -- William Leith, Evening Standard *Books of the Year*
The most exciting living writer. -- Karl Ove Knausgaard

It is a masterful illusion., Economist

Emmanuel Carrère, a man fascinated by crime, eroticism and the oddities of human behaviour, is arguably France?s most original living writer of non-fiction? he creates reportage, that, with its insight and humanity, is closer to literature than journalism. -- Nick Rennison, Sunday Times
