Rezension zu „Dead Water “
"* 'THE WEIGHT OF NUMBERS' - CRITICAL ACCLAIM: * 'Dazzling, admirable narrative verve... It is unlikely there will be a finer written fiction this year' - Guardian * 'An ambitious, exciting novel.. unforgettable" - The Times * 'A dynamic, innovative, and compelling book that brings into focus some of the most interesting trends in contemporary fiction' - Daily Telegraph * 'Simon Ings' ambitiously genre-defying novel is a virtuoso display of imaginative plotting' - Financial Times * 'Ings weaves an ingenious, shimmering web of contiguity and chance... a feat of meticulous plotting.' - New Statesman * 'One of the most exciting - and relevant - books of the last year. Booker material, for sure.' - Arena * 'A deceptively readable, dizzyingly constructed novel... Ing's mad, mad world is held together to the very last page by humour, vivid depictions and a deeply compelling emotional core' - Publishers Weekly STARRED review"
