The snarky brilliant descriptions of people are great, although the characters are mostly either despicable or pathetic. ( )

This is truly excellent. I'd give it five stars but Notes on a Scandal got that and it's slightly better. This is very very funny though; sometimes because she's just so horribly honest and sometimes, well, just because it is. I don't think I'll be able to look at my belly again without thinking of it as an affectionate haggis. On the technical front, I thought she very cleverly told us what a bad man he is at the start. Then later, when he's just dreadful, you can't help but identify. ( )

I would have liked this much more if I had read it before Zoe Heller's other, better books, [Notes on a Scandal] and [The Believers], both of which I absolutely loved. This is clearly a first novel: there are hints of brilliance, especially in the dialogue, but it never quite gets where it's going, and the pacing in the beginning is so uneven it was a bit of a slog to get through until they arrived in Mexico. Only for die-hard Heller fans. Check out her other work. ( )

hollywood screen writer reassesses his relationships/values while reading the diaries of his youngest daughter, who committed suicide;
not many of the characters are that likeable, and most are stepping through life with their eyes closed, so a bit depressing. ( )

I read this book thinking it was a new one from Zoe Heller, but Everything You Know is in fact her first book, written before Notes on a Scandal. It's not as well-crafted an effort—the structure not quite strong enough to sustain it even over just 200 pages—and I'm not sure that her main character (Willy Muller, a philandering fiftysomething writer best known for the book he wrote in the aftermath of being acquitted of his wife's murder, who lives in self-imposed exile from the UK and has nonexistent relationships with his two daughters) is ever sympathetic enough to engage the audience fully in his character arc. However, Heller shows a gift for character voices and for dialogue, and her prose is descriptive and original without being florid. ( )
