Review
"Buzzing with post-punk energy and righteous indignation. The result is a novel that has you feeling sad and angry about Thatcher's Britain all over again."
-"Independent on Sunday"
"It's when Sampson is detailing the violence of the Toxteth riots that his descriptive powers are really exercised.... Stars are Stars has a solid emotional core -- it's about the limits of idealism, and the transformative potential of young love."
