Praise for Gone Girl
-
The plot has it all. I have no doubt that in a year's time I'm going to be saying that this is my favourite novel of 2012. Brilliant. - Kate AtkinsonGONE GIRL builds on the extraordinary achievements of Gillian Flynn's first two books and delivers the reader into the claustrophobic world of a failing marriage. We all know the story, right? Beautiful wife disappears; husband doesn't seem as distraught as he should be under the circumstances. But Flynn takes this sturdy trope of the 24-hour news cycle and turns it inside out, providing a devastating portrait of a marriage and a timely, cautionary tale about an age in which everyone's dreams seem to be imploding'Grips you from the first page and doesn't let go' - Karin Slaughter'Gillian Flynn's writing is compulsively good. I would rather read her than just about any other crime writer' - Kate AtkinsonWith her blistering debut SHARP OBJECTS, Gillian Flynn hit the ground running. DARK PLACES demonstrates that was no fluke' - Val McDermid'Gillian Flynn is the real deal, a sharp, acerbic, and compelling storyteller with a knack for the macabre' - Stephen King'The chiller-writer aristocracy queued up to hurl plaudits at Gillian Flynn's debut - I can see why. There are shades of Stephen King's Carrie in Amma and her sexed up gaggle of henchgirls' - TIME OUT on Sharp ObjectsGone Girl is one of the best and most frightening portraits of psychopathy I've ever read. Nick and Amy manipulate each other with savage, merciless and often darkly witty dexterity. This is a wonderful and terrifying book about how the happy surface normality and the underlying darkness can become too closely interwoven to separate. - Tana French, New York Times bestselling author of Faithful Place and Into the Woods
