Barry Jonsberg's first novel is an absolute riot. As hilarious as it is poignant, The Whole Business with Kiffo and the Pitbull should be on every year-10 syllabus in the country. If this book doesn't make them want to read, nothing will.' The AgeMagnificent! Loved it! Laughed, snorted, and snickered maniacally on thesubway all through it. It's taking great restraint not to run down the hall and read bits aloud to people - Nancy Siscoe, Knopf USAJonsberg's writing is fresh and funny, and bites with fierce teenage realism.
