Edward St. Aubyn Press Reviews
Praise for the Patrick Melrose novels:
'The Melrose novels are remarkable ferociously funny, painfully acute and exhilaratingly written. A brilliantly controlled story of a life sent out of control'
Peter Kemp, Sunday Times
'I've loved Edward St Aubyn's Patrick Melrose novels. Read them all, now' David Nicholls
'A beautifully written novel, whose harrowing but fiercely funny
portrait of addiction is the best I've ever read' Time Out
'St Aubyn
conveys the chaos of emotion, the confusion of heightened sensation, and
the daunting contradictions of intellectual endeavour with a force and
subtlety that have an exhilarating, almost therapeutic effect' Francis
Wyndham, New York Review of Books
'Our purest living prose stylist'
Guardian
