Let the Games Begin cover

The prize-winning international bestseller from the author of I'm Not Scared

The world might be in the throes of a global recession but when an author on the brink of despair, an enigmatic musician, a supermodel and a Satanic sect meet with the cream of Italian high society at the home of a Roman property tycoon, the world outside the mansion's walls is soon forgotten.
There's going to be one hell of a party. And you've got a VIP ticket.

Riotously, and very readably, satirical, Ammaniti has a ball poking fun at the excesses of the Berlusconi era and the insecurities of writers * * Herald * *
Funny and sharp-eyed * * Literary Review * *
A master storyteller. * * Guardian * *
