Reviews

'Other People's Money is wise, droll and beautiful fiction' David Mitchell 'His storytelling powers are so fluent and persuasive, the quality of his observation so fine' Daily Telegraph 'A high-class piece of literary entertainment' Spectator 'A delicately patterned novel about the heroic search for happiness and its ultimate fragility. The comfortable middle-class setting and faintly fairytale ending belie a portrait of family life in which concealment and compromise are never far away. Quietly moving' Financial Times
