"When I finished reading this exhilarating, heartbreaking book, I realised that, in fact, I'd just read one of the best literary novels of the year" -- Stuart Kelly Scotland on Sunday "Profoundly thoughtful... Zone One is a dark mirror, to be sure, but there is no doubt it is our own age that is being scrutinised here" New Statesman "Punchy cocktail of horror, comedy and social critique" Metro "A dark futuristic satire laced with fiendish humour" The Times "Often simultaneously arch and sombre, Whitehead's narrative flares with a sociological intelligence" -- Benjamin Evans Daily Telegraph
