Reviews
'A minor masterpiece of comic surrealism.' The Times "Crazy, charming, a delight." --John le Carré "Eccentric, amusing and chilling."-- The Economist "The best book I've read for a long time." --John Wells "As an allegory it is powerful and frequently moving. As a tale it is tremendous fun. It is also a thing of beauty.'" --Jan Morris "The most extraordinary debut in travel writing since In Patagonia . A park, sardonic and brilliant book which grows in stature with every page." --William Dalrymple "The wittiest, most surreal travel writing of recent years." --Frank Delaney "A truly wonderful writer who has delved into the human condition around the world for two decades to create a canon of work that is invigorating, heartbreaking, hilarious, slyly seditious and ultimately illuminating." -- Toronto Sun "There is pathos-and adventure-in spades… Stalin's Nose is an essential companion for anyone travelling to a part of the world still recovering from the horrors of the giant confidence trick that was communism." -- Financial Times "It is a painful book of bitter old ages, or lives which have had their meanings repeatedly declared void. It is very hard and very good." -- Guardian "MacLean is…the only major travel writer of his generation who is still exclusively and self-consciously a literary writer about travel. He is also one of the best around." --William Dalrymple, Prospect, 'A minor masterpiece of comic surrealism.' - The Times "Crazy, charming, a delight." --John le Carré "Eccentric, amusing and chilling."-- The Economist "The best book I've read for a long time." --John Wells "As an allegory it is powerful and frequently moving.
