Review
'Bret Easton Eilis and Michel Houellebecq have already made a bitter and chilly criticism of our times, and now Juli Zeh walks right through in her own way' - Die Zeit 'The most beautiful and wild German prose published in recent years... Zeh is Zadie Smith's equal in every way' - Die Weltwoche

Guardian
'Zeh's style is always enjoyable, her characters are vivacious and thrilling...what shines through is her exhilirating ambition'

The Independent
'Impressively structured debut...Humour aside, what fuels this narrative is not white powder but white rage'
