Extraordinary book
Times Literary Supplement

These pages are at their most compelling when the respective writers begin to dwell on the currency of their fiction
Tim Adams, Observer
You feel that Auster and Coetzee are addressing each other directly and honestly. Some of it is rather moving, and underpinning it all is genuine affection
Jon Day, Daily Telegraph
Witty and imaginative
Arifa Akbar, Independent
A friendship played out in letters... It's fun and strangely gripping
William Leith, Evening Standard
As engaging as you'd expect... This is an ideal book to keep by the bed and dip into from time to time
