" (Time for Bed) en Angleterre comme en France, David Baddiel confirme avec ce nouveau roman, non seulement " le génie comique " que lui avait reconnu le " Daily Mirror ", mais aussi sa place parmi les " onze meilleurs jeunes écrivains britanniques " (Nick Hornby). Baddiel fait le portrait sans complaisance d'une société qui voit dans la mort d'une princesse une tragédie et remet les choses en perspective ; les tragédies dont pas besoin de princesse pour être tragiques. Baddiel n'a rien perdu de sa verve, il y ajoute cette fois une gravité poignante en abordant des thèmes aussi sérieux que le sida, l'amour et la fidélité. Un livre impressionnant. " The Times.
