Reviews
Praise for THE HOUR I FIRST BELIEVED 'It's part picaresque, part Russian novel, part mystery…ambitious…Caelum is an unusual, provocative character, neither a hero nor an antihero but a regular guy experiencing both the tragic and the absurd. His tone is by turns funny, irritating, depressive and sentimental-which is to say, recognizably human' New York Times ‘A fine and humane novel which tries to make sense of America's turbulent times’ Daily Mail ‘Captivating…he entrances’ Financial Times ‘Those who love a good plot will not be disappointed…He avoids any maudlin sentiment and constantly surprises. He delivers on his message of redemption…it is genuinely moving.’ Independent ‘Thoughtful, informative’ Time Out Praise for I KNOW THIS MUCH IS TRUE ‘A modern Greek tragedy…[Lamb’s] success is to present this with terrific readability, tenderness, optimism and, most surprisingly, wit… The hallmark of the book is fine writing and a commendable depth of characterisation’ The Times ‘Wally Lamb’s achievement is to force you to feel Dominick’s pain… the events in Dominick’s everyday nightmare are presented with a sneaky simplicity which generates emotional tension’ Daily Telegraph ‘A triumph of simple beauty’ Time ‘I Know This Much Is True never grapples with anything less than life’s biggest questions… a modern-day Dostoyevsky’ New York Times ‘Every now and then a book comes along that sets new standards for writers and readers alike. Wally Lamb’s latest novel is stunning – and even that might be an understatement’ Associated Press
