This was a brilliantly written and immaculately produced work. There's just something about Alex, about the way he thinks and writes, which somehow hooks you and keeps you reading and wanting to read. I literally did not want to put it down.

I laughed out loud in places, and found others very solemn and thought-provoking. The whole message of the work falls very neatly into the libertarianism view, but there's nothing forceful about it and it's a rather beautiful, innocent novel which is one of the richest I've read this year.
