REVIEWS
Never Say Never Again The book takes the idea of love beyond the strictures of acceptability and definition and places it within a mature circle of attachment, compatibility, trust, friendship and sacrifice. (The Free Press Journal, India)

Roy’s work is removed from pseudo-fiction in the way the characters provide for the usual ingredients — romance, suspense, loss and happy ending — of a novel while at the same time, construct their actions and reactions in relation to London’s heterogeneity and globality… Roy’s use of his own transnational experiences to bear on national/cultural identity issues, and, of slang, in-jokes and slurs like ‘Paki’ to cast the characters as Londoners, is trendy. (Sanaa Riaz, Dawn, Pakistan)
