Anmeldelser
«A response to the times we live in . . . an urgent invitation for a different kind of conversation»
Prospect
«One moment, the ideas are clear and thrilling; the next, multi-clause, ludic sentences snare the reader in a web of complexity . . . [Phillips] draws nimbly on a wide hinterland of authors - from the poetry of Wallace Stevens to the philosophy of Wittgenstein, from Howard's End to Moby Dick»
Tablet
«A mediation on the powerful fantasy of change»
Times Literary Supplement
«An inspiring vision of psychoanalysis»
Guardian
«His style of psychoanalytic writing refreshingly lacks the usual heaviness and homage to the master»
Inside Story
«Phillips at his most brilliant»
Financial Times
