Big Brother LP - Tapa blanda

"Her [Shriver's] best work--"Big Brother" is her twelfth novel--presents characters so fully formed that they inhabit her ideas rather than trumpet them."--"New Republic"

""Big Brother" is vintage Shriver - observant, unsettling, funny, but also, as Pandora admits, 'Very, very sad.'"--"Miami Herald"

"The moving (and shocking) finale will have you thinking about the 'byzantine emotional mathematics' we all put ourselves through when overwhelmed with family responsibilities."--Oprah.com

"Lionel Shriver's "Big Brother" has the muscle to overpower its readers. It is a conversation piece of impressive heft."--"New York Times"

"Would I recommend "Big Brother"? Absolutely. It confronts the touchy subject of American lard exuberantly and intelligently; it makes you think about what you put in your mouth and why."--"Bloomberg"

"Pandora is a masterly creation."--"New York Times Book Review"

"A surprising sledgehammer of a novel"--"The Times" (London)

"A gutsy, heartfelt novel"--"Sunday Times" (London)

As a writer, Shriver s talents are many: She s especially skilled at playing with readers s reflexes for sympathy and revulsion, never letting us get too comfortable with whatever firm understanding we think we have of a character. --"Washington Post""
