Reviews

If we are ever to experience in English the serious practice of narrative as the French have developed it over the last few years, we shall have to attend to Christine Brooke-Rose. Frank Kermode on Thru
Out represents quite a new departure in Miss Brooke-Rose's work... a splendid achievement... Isobel English
Such is a runaway success for her original technique... funny, painful, exciting, haunting... Elizabeth Smart
Her finest novel completely succeeds because subject and language are one. Angus Wilson on Between
