Poignant and heart breaking reveals about flawed and disturbed characters (0 more)
Mind warping and brilliantly twisted
Given that the main character in this novel is a boy in a coma it is surprisingly fast paced. The characters are complex and the mystery around Louis condition deepens as each page us turned.
Liz Jensen really explores the limits life, family and indeed our own thoughts put on us and our families, explores the human capacity for warmth and destruction whole painting a very clear grey picture - not everything is good or bad, life is often somewhere in between.
