Abstract: The article presents information on the reviews received by several books in different newspapers and magazines. Despite reams of column inches for his new novel "Cleaver" the consensus among critics is that the prolific Tim Parks is distinctly unappreciated. Henry Hitchings points out in the "Financial Times" that the Veronadwelling author is far removed from the hurly-burly of the British literary scene, and that this fact might be contributing to his relative lack of success. Some other books which were reviewed include: "Men That God Made Mad," by Derek Lundy, "Cell" by Stephen King and "The Dream of Rome," by Boris Johnson.
