* Shortlist * The details of Fifties America, the cars, the clothes, the food, the televisions with wonky horizontal hold, are so vivid that you begin to wonder whether the author himself hasn't had access to a time machine. Captivating, surprisingly pacy and free from sci-fi cliche, it's no wonder the film version is already being planned. * Daily Mail * You have to take a leap of faith with time-travel novels, but if there's one writer who can pull it off, it's Stephen King.

King manages to avoid both sentimentalizing the past and treating it with massive condescension his role as the poet of American brand-names serves him well here. * Adam LeBor FT Weekend * One of the strengths of the book is King's at once nostalgic and honest view of the end of the Eisenhower era. King succeeds in this, partly drawing from his own memories. The key to any novel set in an alternate reality is credible world building, the steady accumulation of detail - preferably lightly distributed - that brings the story alive.
