Trade ReviewThe ghost of Mark Twain is evoked in this outstanding collection of essays * Sunday Times *
Pulphead is a big, fat, frequently exhilarating collection * Guardian *
Pulphead has a ramshackle loquacity, a down-home hyper-eloquence and an off-the-wallishness that is quite distinct - and highly addictive -- Goeff Dyer
The best, and most important collection of magazine writing since David Foster Wallace's
A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again * New York Times Book Review *
From prehistoric caves to Axl Rose's oxygen chamber, Sullivan's generous, witty voice lights up every page -- Joe Dunthorne
