No Highway is a novel which engages the heart and grips the mind

Shute was a brilliant storyteller and terrific example for any writer

Mr Shute is a storyteller in the tradition of R.L Stevenson and Kipling

Unputdownable...brilliantly handled to keep the reader guessing right to the end

Striking and original...a star is born

Intriguing

A gripping page turner

Jenkins shows she has a gift for tender comedy

A moving study

I can think of no better companion than Janette Jenkins' pitch-perfect reimagining of a regret-tinged twilight of Noel Coward's life

A study in melancholy, very well observed

Perfectly-tuned imagining… Jenkins’ telling of it...saves it from any hint of predictability

Jenkins’s prose is thoughtful and sensitive…and her depiction of Coward’s final stage performance, which was a disaster, is particularly insightful

As broad and panoramic as ever.

There are some dazzling satirical riffs and politically incorrect laughs.

Wolfe’s prose is as punchy as ever.

Energetically set against the deco licentiousness of Florida’s steamiest party capital.

Class, family, wealth and corruption are all themes in this examination of life in Miami.

[Tells] us about the way we live now... enjoyable.

Classic Wolfe. A delight

Epic, hectic, satirical… It’s scathing, funny, and has great set-piece scenes

Contemporary Miami gets the Wolfe treatment in a grand, sweeping satire on race, class, lust and immigration

Wonderful

Parks is one of the best living writers of English, and this book is so good you don't want it to end

If, like me, you relish Italy, railways and grumbling, this is the most transporting book

A fun, informative and detailed journey
