"Here is a book that does the impossible: it combines Mark Twain, Thomas Pynchon, and Little Miss Sunshine. Good novels entertain; great ones come as a gift to the readers who are lucky enough to find them. This book is a treasure" Stephen King "Larsen has made an impressive mark ... spectacularly funny" Sunday Times "Reif Larsen's wonderful original debut, destined to please readers of all ages, is the Next Big Thing... echoes of Thomas Pynchon, Robert Coover and Nicholson Baker... a lively sophisticated narrative that looks to The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" Irish Times "A wilfully original and diverting book ... you can see exactly why it caused publishers to sit up. It is charming and kooky" Observer "Think Tom Sawyer with a passion for empirical science... one of the most original books of the year" Metro
