Aaaawwking brilliant mate!!! I could even say "stonkin'"!!!

This book should be compulsory reading for all Doctors, Nurses, Surgeons, Students and everyone else involved in the medical profession. It is not a commercial book that will sell in millions, although it should. This is a heart felt, thought provoking examination of the meaning of the Hippocratic Oath and the problems and the triumphs faced in medicine today.

I enjoyed this book and once into it I could not put it down.
The main character Jerrett has a hard time from the start trying to understand why his country is in such a bad place.
Meeting others who are also not happy helps him and his family move on from loss of loved ones.
I personally found the book very thought provoking as our world is in trouble.
I can imagine this happening now

First, I have to say—the paperback itself is gorgeous. The quality fully deserves the special edition label. The illustrations, print, paper, and editing make it a genuine joy to add to my bookshelf. And for such a young author—f**k me—what a lucky lad.

The content is deliciously vile. It tackles mental health, the impossibility of being comfortable in one’s own skin, the restless mind, and the desperate urge to rip and tear your way free. This anthology is a treat for anyone who enjoys the more extreme side of literature. With time and experience, I can see this author walking in the footsteps of Jack Ketchum, Garrett Cook, and Wrath James White—if he chooses.

I’ll end with my favourite passage (and trust me, I don’t write many reviews):

I see so much, so much that you ignore. I’ve seen people dying, calling out for help, but their cries fall on your broken ears. Alcohol and drugs run rampant through your body, your gift, decimating what He has provided. You will not be saved.

This perfectly captures the beauty and terror of a mind reaching for a higher power that doesn’t exist—the essence of existential dread and the folly of existence. If you want an experience, give this young author a try.

A very well written story ithad me engaged from start to finish.....I would definitely recommend it.

The publisher‘s blurb for this novel is superb and compelling that i will go straight to a comment : the book has something in common with Leonard Cohen‘s two novels and especially Beautiful Losers. The emotional hooks and shocks are well paced. This is a departure for the Washington Post celebrated author of Ezra Slef. The denouement is surprising and i only guessed it at about 90 per cent read. A compelling story that has a life affirming conclusion and which is surprisingly satisfying. Recommended.

Brilliant author. Captivating and original plot. Kept me gripped right to the end. Loved this book. Would highly recommend.

A romantic biography of an English poet’s life—easy to read, captivating, and immersive.

This fresh and idiomatic translation of Andre Maurois‘ biography of Shelley makes a good introduction to the entire Romantic movement. The relations of the young poet with Godwin and Byron, for instance, are convincing and well-drawn. The shifts of scene within England and to the Continent are well drawn. Above all, the language of this translation is altogether more accessible than the previously available translation from the 1930s. Strongly recommended and especially for anyone new to Shelley‘s life story and poetry. It makes a great portal to the Romantics. The cover and the strikingly apt contemporary black and white Illustrations are another plus.
