Recensione:
"'As a rule, if a book starts talking to you ... head for funny farm. While you're down there, you might meet Marius Brill, who has produced a book that does precisely that, one so entirely fantastical as to be quite scary ... An oddity to savour'" (Arena)
"'Enjoyable comic tale enhanced by some genuine philosophical questions'" (Books)
"'Fantastic, hilarious ... verbal pyrotechnics, supported by a fecund imagination of the first order'" (The Times)
"'An absurd, hilarious, spy-cum-action-cum-postmodern thriller, Making Love is incredibly clever without showing off, self-referential without being self-congratulatory, and a damn good read. Fantastic'" (The List)
"'An exceptional piece of writing...Making Love is as winning a first novel as I have read in a long time'" (Sunday Telegraph)
