‘I very much enjoyed Box Hill. It is a characteristic Mars-Jones mixture of the shocking, the endearing, the funny and the sad, with an unforgettable narrator. The sociological detail is as ever acutely entertaining.’
— Margaret Drabble

Praise for Cedilla

— TLS Books of the Year

‘One of the most brilliant fictional projects of recent years.’

— Guardian

Praise for Pilcrow

‘Mars-Jones’s prose is exceptionally nimble, dry, humorously restrained, very English, with a little Nabokovian velvet too. He can describe more or less anything and make it interesting.’
— James Wood, London Review of Books

‘Truly exhilarating.’
— Sunday Times

‘Remarkable… A gripping, tragicomic, Proustian tale, presenting a world at once wholly convincing and wholly surprising… I long to know what happens next to its brave and gallant narrator.’
— Margaret Drabble, New Statesman
