5.0 out of 5 stars A cut above the rest, 13 Feb 2002
By A Customer
Finally Sophie Hannah gets away from lurid covers with heart-shaped bike chains on them. The Superpower of Love, much as the title sounds like your average romance novel, actually refers to American superpowers, companies who get in the way and mess everything up! And in the same way, this novel is subversively political, comparing the way we treat our loved ones to large political news stories such as Kosovo. Despite the serious themes of the novel, it is entertainingly and wittily written with a touch of the absurd about it - people dressing up as elephants, larger-than-life idiots on a grand scale, and the hilarious tale of Gatting the cactus. A novel about the way we form attachments and the important impact they have on our lives. But only by reading it can you understand how good it really is.

5.0 out of 5 stars A very realistic, absorbing book about friendship and love, 17 April 2002
By A Customer
This book is unusual in that it really delves into the way freindship works, in a way that makes other books with similar themes seem quite superficial. The book dissects the way friends can help, hurt and affect each other, and the cast of characters are so vivid and plausible that you really feel as if you're there in the book with them! There are some moral issues that these characters have to get to grips with and, as a reader I found the novel really made me think. It's also hilarious in parts and very warm - it really cheered me up!
