'Benjamin Law manages to be scatagogical, hilarious and heartbreaking all at the same time. Every sentence fizzes like an exploding fireball of energy.' -Alice Pung

'A vivid, gorgeously garish, Technicolour portrait of a family. It's impossible not to let oneself go along for the ride and emerge at the book's end enlightened, touched, thrilling with laughter.' -Marieke Hardy

'The eccentric, clever and beautifully resonant The Family Law. It's sharply written, brilliantly observed and infused with an authenticity that makes it compelling.' -Saturday Age

'Very funny...you may find yourself at times almost barking with laughter' -the Monthly

'Law is a writer of great wit and warmth who combines apparently artless and effortless comedian's patter with a high level of technical skill.' -Sydney Morning Herald

'Wonderful. Everyone should run to their nearest bookshop and buy a copy.' -Defamer
