The Book of George
Greathead knows a particular subset of these floundering young men very well, painfully well, hilariously well ... Acerbic ... Greathead attains a perfect balance among irritation, pathos and comedy.

A novel of many finely crafted, often funny moments that arrive episodically as the title character grows older ... The novel’s author, Kate Greathead, is a gifted storyteller who reels off dialogue filled with wit and humor so well it makes page-turning a pleasure and The Book of George an easy read ... George may be a doom-and-gloom sort, but that’s not the case for Greathead’s novel. Page after page, her writing is full of humor built around prickly sarcasm and woebegone twists in George’s life.

Greathead is an excellent witness to her characters’ exceedingly human conditions and a deadpan comedian of manners.
