Media Reviews
'Knight's wit is calculated to charm adult readers... in this book he has produced a delightful and original hybrid: the bedtime autobiography'- Times; 'The novel is unquestionably accomplished, the bedtime stories are charming. The family history is paced and spliced to ultimately moving effect' -TLS; 'The act of re-reading [his] childhood is what Mr Schnitzel is all about; and it is a moving, often comic, heart-rending process'-Guardian
