Whereas a smaller number of monkeys on a single typewriter would bash out this novel on the first attempt.I'd like to say I hated it. I'd like to provide a critique and pull it apart. But instead, I threw it in the bin after the first six pages.Seriously, don't waste your time.Don't be fooled by the gushing praise from the elite of the literary critics.They are all in the same boat. Afraid to call this book what it is. Which is the lierary equivalent of the Emperor in the New Suit of Clothes. None of them had the guts to call out that he was naked. And none of them have the guts to call out the fact that this book is the biggest load of pretentious twaddle every to venture out from the confines of a publishing house that should have taken more pity on an unsuspecting readership.Yes I get the fact that it was science fiction.Yes I get that it's trying to make a point about the impending implosion of language in a world currently limited to 140-character tweets.But Woody Allen and Michael Anderson made the same point 30 years ago. With more warmth. More humour. More self-deprecation. More wit. More ability. More of everything you'd ever want from a work of fiction.Please. I understand you might be wanting something a bit more meaningful if you've read everything that Dan Brown, Lee Child, John Grisham and everyone else on Richard and Judy's book list has to offer.But do yourself a favour and don't waste £15 of your hard-earned cash on something that is likely to end up as the most expensive toilet paper you've ever bought.Oh. And by the way. Apart from that, it was a right rivetin' read :-) ### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars Oh dear *by D***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 August 2019* I’m a big fan of Nicola Barker, but I have absolutely no idea what this book is about. And it doesn’t work properly on Kindle. ### ⭐ 1.0 out of 5 stars Might appeal to some, not to me *by M***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 26 July 2018* If you like your narrative to be linear and sensical then don't look here. If you like to read a work that is more of art than it is of story, then you might find some enjoyment. Sadly, I'm a guy who walks past 20 paintings in a gallery until I find one I like. I wish I'd walked past this one. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/49938638-h-a-ppy-barker-nicola-hardcover-20-july-2017](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/49938638-h-a-ppy-barker-nicola-hardcover-20-july-2017) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
