By becoming a crime writer she has – in a way that other "literary" types may wish to note – become a better literary writer than ever: funny, bracingly intelligent and delightfully prickly . . . Kate Atkinson is that rarest of beasts, a genuinely surprising novelist

Other text

Atkinson's genius is her sure control of plot . . . immaculately – even lovingly – paced, and it is a measure of Atkinson's talent that I read it in one sitting.
