Anmeldelser
«[Turtle Diary] has medicinal qualities. I only need to think about it and I'm in a better mood.»
Max Porter
«A story about the recovery of life ... Like other cult writers - Salinger for instance, or Vonnegut - Hoban writes about ordinary people making life-affirming gestures in a world that threatens to dissolve in madness.»
Newsweek
«This lovely human fable seems to me one of the best things of its kind - a fine and touching achievement.»
John Fowles
«Tragicomic pleasure ... Metaphysical speculation undercut by dry humour is the signature style of Russell Hoban.»
Richard Preston, The Times
«Worth rejoicing in ... a banquet of whimsical delights. Each Russell Hoban book is surprising ... but you also know what you're getting, which is curiosity, wonder and a world-encompassing empathy.»
John Self, The Guardian
«Crackles with witty detail, mordant intelligence and self-deprecating irony.»
Time
«Russell Hoban is our Ur-novelist, a maverick voice that is like no other.»
Sunday Telegraph
