Making Babies is an absolute joy, the perfect, intelligent antidote to poisonous books on the subject
India Knight
An unadulterated delight...suffused with a sense of love and very, very funny
Maggie O'Farrell, Daily Telegraph
Fizzingly entertaining. Reading it is like having a conversation with your funniest friend. Enright has pulled off that rarest of tricks: writing brilliantly about happiness
Sunday Times
Anne Enright is an eloquent writer...dazzlingly funny
Penelope Lively
Making Babies is not just a good book, it's a good thing. It induces hope. It creates an appetite for life. It is also a very effective contraceptive
Ian Sansom
A hopelessly vivid maker of sentence, of the sort you can't help reading aloud to whoever happens to be nearby... Ms. Enright's commentary on gender politics and babies, like a swimming pool illuminated by underwater lights, also casts an entrancingly strange glow
Dwight Garner, New York Times
Gasp-making, jaw-dropping and eloquently astounding
Irish Indepedent
Enright is such an original and witty writer. Her tone is utterly unsentimental and kept reducing me to tears
Zoe Heller
