“A moving novel, and a very refreshing one. Jack is such an
engaging, attractive human being, it’s a pleasure to believe in
him.” —David Foster Wallace
“The engaging, doggedly funny [Jack] is likable from the first
paragraph, a good kid caught in circumstances too much for him. And
in the particulars of those circumstances, A. M. Homes touches upon
something unique. Ms. Homes handles the big subjects subtly, deftly
and with an appealing lack of melodrama.”—The New York Times Book
Review
