Recenzii

Praise for THE NEW REPUBLIC: 'It takes guts to write a satire about terrorism - and Lionel Shriver has guts. Shriver is an incisive social satirist with a clear grip on the ironies of our contemporary age. Shriver's take on journalism and international politics is wry, insightful and just over the top enough to be fun' LA TIMES 'Shriver has the kind of cojones few English-language novelists possess, male or female ... Barrington comes across as part Falstaff and part Kurtz, with a soupcon of Gatsby ... Edgar Kellogg himself is living a version of the American Dream of reinvention, but in Shriver's hands it's a version that travels through the heart of darkness and tests a man's soul' GLOBE & MAIL 'The New Republic stands at the confluence of a number of fine comic traditions ... we can only be thankful that Shriver got round to dusting down this comic tour de force for the outing it richly deserves' SUNDAY TIMES 'Written with intelligence, wit and pizzazz' DAILY MAIL 'She is one of the most magnetically compelling writers working today. Witty, caustic and worldly' WALL STREET JOURNAL
