Sublime...impressive...rich and enjoyable
Financial Times
Gloriously readable and, at times, wickedly funny
Irish Times
Sweet Tooth takes the expectations and tropes of the Cold War thriller and ratchets up the suspense, while turning it into something else... A well-crafted pleasure to read, its smooth prose and slippery intelligence sliding down like cream
Independent
Playful, comic... This is a great big Russian doll of a novel, and in its construction - deft, tight, exhilaratingly immaculate - is a huge part of its pleasure...exerts a keen emotional pull
Observer
Riveting... Delicious... Gripping
Guardian
Highly entertaining
John Lanchester, Guardian Books of the Year
Enthralling, beguiling and totally addictive from the first page to the last. McEwan's sense of time and place is authentic with his trademark attention to details of the social history of the period
Bristol Magazine
A brilliant portrayal of 1970s Britain at its absolute worst. But it's also a gripping spy novel with some characteristic McEwan twists toward the end
Mail on Sunday
A web of spying, subterfuge, deceit and betrayal... Acute, witty...winningly cunning
Sunday Times
