Reviews

Jesus Christ Kinski is extraordinary. It is an assault. It is an affront to decency. It is Klaus Kinski, right there on the page. It is hateful. And I loved reading it. It takes real daring to take on such a subject and real skill to carry it off with so much humanity. The talent of Benjamin Myers is something to behold.
SAM JORDISON
-
The book's achievement lies in the throbbing life force of Kinski himself. His is a dark star, close to collapse. It offers no guiding light but continues to burn five decades on
NEW STATESMAN
-
A compelling autofictional account which exerts a strange charm … Plunges us into Kinski's fevered mind … A riot of salty vituperation
GUARDIAN
-
Brilliant ... The bravura stylistic flourishes, the wild imagination, the conjuring of a damaged and maddening psyche – this book is strange and electrifying ... When Myers's Kinski – vituperative, committed, possessed – grabs us by the neck and spits in our faces, deep down we know it's what we deserve ... One of our brightest young novelists
DAILY TELEGRAPH
-
An experimental and distinguished novel ... An idiosyncratic and destabilising performance that matches Kinski's own
SPECTATOR
-
Highly original, bold, inventive … Myers captures the dark and forceful energy of Kinski and his startlingly aggressive and vicious mind … A stunning rendering
