Review:
'She has wit and insight to match Nick Hornby, and the entertainment value of Helen Fielding.' Nicolette Jones, Independent'A marvel. Graham's style is riveting, hilarious one-liners falling in quick succession.' Anthea Lawson, The Timeson THE UNFORTUNATES:'You can't help being charmed by a woman who describes being sexually smitten as "the same pleasant shock as the first time I touched a frog". Wildly funny.' Sunday Times 'My unputdownable book of the year. I laughed and cried.' Sunday Herald'Poppy Minkel is a wonderfully original, naive character. A fantastic, engrosssing read.' Glamour'Fresh, funny and smart, a novel that reels from the Titanic to jazz age New York.' Observer'An irrepressible adventurer, Poppy is a comic combination of innocence and pluck, but although this is a brisk, breezy read, it's also a novel with serious bite.' Daily Mailon FUTURE HOMEMAKERS OF AMERICA: 'Superlative. The writing sparkles from first to last' David Robson, Sunday Telegraph'Crackles with energy ' Georgia Metcalfe, Daily Mail'Laugh-out-loud funny; intelligent; moving; has more delicious roll-off-the-tongue one-liners than Seinfeld. One of those books you buy six copies of to send to all your old friends.' Julie Morrice, Scotsman'A wonderfully moving comedy.' Alex Clark, Red'A warm, life-affirming novel that offers its readers pure pleasure.' Katie Owen, The Times
