Reviewed by Basingstoke Tuesday Afternoon Reading Group:
We found the characters well written but irritating – an extremely dysfunctional family. We found the references to Jewish culture interesting. The slightly jokey tone of the book didn’t come off. We would not necessarily recommend this book.
