Trash

Reviews

One of the most exciting and original novels of the year . . . It's a tight, thrilling story, told from various characters' perspectives and has a Slumdog, feel-good pulse beating through it. A genuine treasure find One of my favourite novels of 2010, now in paperback with a new cover look. Reminiscent of Slumdog Millionaire, three dumpsite boys take on the world in this gripping and intensely moving story . . . Harrowing, exhilarating, humbling and quite brilliant Outstanding, hotly anticipated thriller . . . an exceptionally satisfying plot Great stuff: taut, plausible and thought-provoking Trash is a thriller with moral weight and a complex structure . . . Without ever moralising, Mulligan raises issues of corruption, poverty, waste and excess in an exciting, but also grimly sad tale Wonderful - an exciting story with engaging characters told in a clever way with spare but lyrical prose . . . Trash comes highly recommended by me, and I don't have time to say any more about it because I'm off to read it again. And after that, I might read it again. And then again. You read it too A superbly original tale This is a highly entertaining and very satisfying book which should be recommended to all. It needs to be read. Harrowing, exhilarating, humbling and quite brilliant Headlong and heart-stopping, this is an adventure you just can't put down Expand reviews
