Reviews
"One New Year's Eve, four people with very different reasons but a common purpose find their way to the top of a fifteen-story building in London. None of them has calculated that, on a date humans favor for acts of significance, in a place known as a local suicide-jumpers' favorite, they might encounter company. A Long Way Down is the story of what happens next, and of what doesn't." -- The New York Times Book Review "It's like The Breakfast Club rewritten by Beckett.... What makes the book work is Hornby's refusal to give an inch to sentimentality or cheap inspirational guff." -- Time "A dramatic, sad and thoroughly side-splitting novel." -- Newsday "Wildly enjoyable. A daring high-wire act. It's serious literature...no, it's popular entertainment...no, it's both!" -- Seattle Times "Time's stealthy tread, its unseen ability to heal some wounds while inflicting others, gives Nick Hornby's darkly comic new novel, A Long Way Down, its genuine power." -- San Francisco Chronicle, "This is a brave and absorbing book. It's a thrill to watch a writer as talented as Hornby take on the grimmest of subjects without flinching." -- "Publishers Weekly", "A dramatic, sad and thoroughly side-splitting novel." -- Newsday "Wildly enjoyable. A daring high-wire act. It's serious literature...no, it's popular entertainment...no, it's both!" -- Seattle Times "Time's stealthy tread, its unseen ability to heal some wounds while inflicting others, gives Nick Hornby's darkly comic new novel, A Long Way Down, its genuine power." -- San Francisco Chronicle  , "A dramatic, sad and thoroughly side-splitting novel."-- Newsday "Wildly enjoyable.

Excellent seller -- good communication, item exactly as described, reasonably priced, well packed. Seller shipped immediately but the book took over half a month to arrive, due to the carrier used on the first leg, to get the package to USPS.

  • A Long Way Down by Nick Hornby

    This was different from the books I usually read. I had read a review of it and it sounded interesting. It was well written, funny in places, sad too. I enjoyed it. It reads pretty quickly. A good, light read. It was worth the price.

  • Don't expect to get anything out of it

    My reading group decided on this book. I expected it be more thought provoking. Turns out it's on the level of a beach read. Very mainstream with no surprises.

  • Nick Hornby book

    It was ok reading, I read the book looking for some sort of ending, but the book just ended to me like huh? It was selected as the book of the month for my book club.
