Publisher's Notes
First Line: "On a clear, blueblack, starry night, in the city of Berlin, in the year 2003, two young people sat down to dinner. Their names were Sophie and Patrick."
Industry Reviews
"Tasty but filling: a rich...portrait of a time and a place that have received less than their fair share of literary attention."
Kirkus Reviews (12/15/2001)
"[T]he strength of THE ROTTERS' CLUB lies in its comic humanity, not its anger. If Coe is right in his claim that the 1970s were 'brown times,' then it is a testament to his skill that he has rendered them in such vivid colors."
Atlantic Monthly - Stephen Amidon (03/01/2002)
