'This enormously inventive, superbly written novel puts more seasoned authors in the shade' SUNDAY TIMES
James Lasdun's books include The Horned Man and Give Me Everything You Have: On Being Stalked. He teaches creative writing at Columbia University and reviews regularly for the Guardian. His work has been filmed by Bernardo Bertolucci (Besieged) and he co-wrote the films Sunday, which won Best Feature and Best Screenplay awards at Sundance, and Signs and Wonders, starring Charlotte Rampling and Stellan Skarsgard.
Bristling with precise, poetic descriptions of scene and
gesture
*Guardian*
Lasdun's prose is crisp, clear, meticulously calibrated. His
attention to detail is immaculate... A novel which locks its
readers inside it, keeping them trapped even after they have
reached the end
*The Times*
The Horned Man is a marvellous novel, both compellingly readable -
I literally couldn't put it down - and deeply philosophical
*Scotsman*
A chilling tale of urban paranoia, poetically executed
*Time Out*
