Review
Pop is as sexy, genial, generous, and boozy as ever. Ma is a worthy match for him in all these qualities -- - * The Times * As funny as Evelyn Waugh and as enchanting as Laurie Lee's Cider with Rosie. Don't miss it -- - * Herald * Pop Larkin, Ma and their progeny . . . are essentially English of the rich and ribald England of Chaucer and Shakespeare. A superb and timeless comedy -- - * Scotsman * A perfick piece of entertainment -- - * New York Times * A wistful daydream about innocence and happiness -- - * Spectator * A pulsing comedy of country manners. A five-alarm blaze of a book. Just about perfick -- - * Time * A gently, anarchic wish-fulfilling daydream -- - * The Times * The Larkins live - these novels please us by escaping definition -- - * Guardian *
