Review:
Electrifying. Clever, funny and very entertaining (The New York Times)
Tremendous, big, clever ... every once in a while a novel comes along and speaks to a generation ... has much to say about what it means to live, love and lose in the twenty-first century (Guardian)
Worthy of Chuck Palahniuk . . . Hutchins's satirical take on 21st-century existence is sharply observed (Independent)
Touching and extremely funny, Neill Bassett is a disenchanted bachelor for the Noughties generation. Brilliantly achieved (GQ)
Inventive, intelligent, hilarious. One of the pleasures here is Hutchins' terrific grasp of the zeitgest (San Francisco Chronicle)
Terrific. Throughout, Hutchins hits that sweet spot where humour and melancholy comfortably coexist (Entertainment Weekly)
Mixes the everyman likeability of Nick Hornby with a splash of the offbeat intellect of Douglas Coupland (Metro)
