More about the book

Reading Smile , one is swept along - as in all Doyle's novels - by the vibrancy of the language, the vivid sense of character and place , but nothing prepares you for the final few pages where, in a twist of imaginative brilliance , everything you have read is turned completely on its head... Smile is beautifully written, and beautifully observed - the rituals of male friendships, the pride a mother takes in her son getting a job... the way an uncertain man feels when a beautiful woman shows interest... There is not a superfluous word . Mick Brown Daily Telegraph
