Stamping Butterflies

Jon Courtenay Grimwood Press Reviews

'This is a virtuoso lesson in bringing artistic unity to radically dissonant elements. It is also the novel of a writer with real heart. STAMPING BUTTERFLIES  is a book written with superb technique by a writer who never forgets that technique alone is not the whole point.'
Roz Kaveney
TIME OUT

"Turning the idea of the past determining the future upside down, this thriller takes an attempted assassination of the US President in the Seventies and an emperor awaiting his death in ancient China and creates a riveting read."

ESQUIRE

"Grimwood imbues his creations with startling psychological complexity. Marrakech is brought to vivid life, along with its inhabitants. Grimwood has produced, imago-like, an inspiring butterfly of humanity and hope from a hard shell of despair."
