The Porcupine Bewertungen

Critics have overlooked his tenderness, underestimated his intelligence, and denied his wisdom... The Porcupine is a superbly accomplished novella * Nick Hornby *
A minor masterpiece of political satire: compelling, funny and frightening * Robert Harris *
The Porcupine is a new indisputable proof of Mr Barnes's creative power, yet what really astonished me, the Prosecutor, was the amazing precision of the intellectual's view of a socialist dictator, which so accorded with Zhivkov's true character * Prosecutor Zhekov, official prosecutor of the deposed Bulgarian leader Todor Zhivkov *
The neatness of the novel's structure is complemented by the rampageous energy of the characters for which it is the cage * Daily Telegraph *
