"[Kelman is] a talented writer, capable of the exquisite line, the touching and hilarious moment." ―The Wall Street Journal
“Man on Fire is a glorious, warm, unpredictable story, told by two glorious, warm, unpredictable narrators. I loved it.” ―Roddy Doyle
"Written with the blend of humor and compassion that Kelman demonstrated in his first novel, Pigeon English (2011), this is a deeply introspective and entertaining story of the hopes and dreams of two men and the country captivated by them." ―starred review, Booklist
“Astonishingly moving . . . enchanting . . . Man on Fire does what a novel at its best can do; underneath the humour and pathos and Bibhuti's hopes and dreams, we find an account of India itself. Out of this unlikely material, Stephen Kelman has written a book of profound beauty and deep empathy.” ―The Guardian
"One of the most quirky books I have ever read . . . A revelatory and very touching book." ―"Books of the Year," The Observer
“An original tale about faith, friendship and determination . . . an enthralling novel by a writer of considerable talent.” ―Financial Times
“Enthralling . . . [Kelman has the] ability to write dark, gut-wrenching books full of life and energy.” ―The Herald Scotland
“Highly charismatic . . . A heart-warming tale that examines what it means to look at life's difficulties head on, from which a message of love and friendship shines through.” ―The National (UAE)
"Endearing . . . a joyful offering." ―Publishers Weekly
"With its unlikely subject for such an emotionally rich and imaginatively told tale, this second novel easily fulfills the promise of Kelman’s much-admired and Man Booker short-listed Pigeon English." ―Library Journal
