| Book Description | A true story of monstrous deception, from France's greatest living writer – 'The story told here is beyond the imagination of even the best crime writer' Sunday Times |
| Editorial Review | A masterpiece... It's a level of moral discomfort almost without equal in literature (New York Times)."Savagely intense and utterly compelling... This is his paciest and cleanest-cut book...few books could better deserve a second chance to find new readers" (Sunday Times)."The Adversary is exactly the idea I have of a modern novel: struggling deftly with facts and with itself" (Laurent Binet, author of HHhH)."An absolutely stunning piece of work, totally involving and unforgettable" (Evening Standard)."Unputdownable... Imagine a sleek, twenty-first century version of In Cold Blood" (Washington Post)."A remarkably thoughtful and unnerving book...mesmerising" (Sunday Telegraph)."Profoundly disturbing...a remarkable and undoubtedly important book - perhaps even a necessary one" (Daily Express)."The story told here is truly beyond the imagination for even the best crime writer" (Sunday Times)."A fascinating meditation on Jean-Claude Romand and what his bizarre life might mean... Carrère's inquiry is highly personal, written in lucid prose...the narrative is often mesmerizing, and revealing about the fragility of human relationships" (New York Times)."He’s the best kind of writer, not just a bestseller but a man who is not afraid to leave the comfort zone of his desk, go out into the world, take risks, and get his shoes dirty" (Observer) |
