'Sayle proves once again that he is no literary dilettante but the real thing' -- Daily Express 'Alexei Sayle excels. The Weeping Women Hotel" is an enjoyable page-turner with a curious plot. If you like your weirdness with warmth and wit, Sayle's your man.' -- Metro 'A brilliant writer ... a great novelist' -- Richard and Judy 'He just seems to keep getting better and better - more supple, more confident and more violent. This is a funny, frightening book which is also refreshingly bonkers.' -- Guardian 'Sayle's energy has been boiling over in collections of short stories and novels of immense literary sophistication - books that are also bed-wettingly funny.With his high-spirited loathing of pretension, he could be our new Kingsley Amis.' -- Roger Lewis, Sunday Express 'This is a novel composed of surreal flights of fancy and spot-on comedy.' -- Katy Guest, Independent
