5.0 out of 5 stars A totally enthralling book., 6 April 2001
By A Customer
When I began reading this book I found the Geordie dialect difficult to interprate and thought about giving up.However,by the end of the first chapter I wanted to know what happened next.The characters were so full of life that I felt I could picture them vividly in my mind.I still don't know what half of the words meant but it did not stop me enjoying the book to the end.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny, heartwarming and very humitarian., 11 Mar 2001
By A Customer
This is a good novel, this is a good tale. This is the kind of book you feel better for having read. Tulloch takes a massive stride from his debut novel and, basically, touches you. Sonny Gee is the kind of character you want to read about - the dispossessed, the left behind. This is a political novel with a heart of gold. You could almost call it retro in the way that it deals with real emotions as the story unfurls. Almost in direct opposition to pretentious books that concern themselves more with the form and literary tradition. This is a book for people who like reading books. Together with writers such as post Gen X Coupland, this is a page-turner that documents the times that maybe don't appear in the newspapers and gossip columns. Real life...which we all experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Bonny Lad, 5 Jan 2006
By B. Wilson (Blackpool, Lancs United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Bonny Lad (Audio Cassette)
The book itself is a magnificent insight into human relationships. The relationship between the boy and the old man, so very moving. The Gramdma and her numerous grandchildren. A cast of characters out of this world and all delivered with such rapour you want to hurry the narrator along so as to enjoy the next chuckle,the next tear, the next belly laugh. The narrator performs the characters to perfection. A wonderful listen. A wonderful read.
