What others are saying about An Accident Waiting to Happen: 'Adrian White's debut is irresistible . . . it's like life.' Afric Hamilton, Irish Examiner'If you were to judge a book by its cover, you might think An Accident Waiting to Happen is a touchy-feely boy's book in the Tony Parsons/Nick Hornby tradition. However, appearances can be deceptive and this is a rather unpleasant book with a remarkably unsympathetic narrator. Dark, unsettling - and definitely not touchy-feely.' Anna Carey, Image Magazine'A tough subject, desertion, handled with compelling simplicity as a father and son cope alone in a rough world. Extraordinarily engaging and sensitive, wringing one's emotions.' Sarah Broadhurst, The Bookseller'His novel mixes gripping sections with an internal monologue filled with anxiety, confusion and weakness. Disturbing and sometimes irresistible, this is a story that will find a responsive audience in the growing ranks of dispossessed fathers.' Lucille Redmond, Irish Independent'White offers a porthole on the male dilemma - the pressure to plumb his emotions and articulate them, the quandary of a sense of alienation from his environment. His unflinching honesty, coupled with an accessible writing style, produce an assured debut.' Martina Devlin, Dublin Evening HeraldAbout the AuthorAdrian White is an English writer who has lived with his family in Ireland for over twenty-five years.
