»By taking conspiracy theories to their absurd lengths, Meyer makes it clear how mendacious they are – so far-fetched that the only possible response is laughter. [...] A pleasure to read.«

»Thomas Meyer’s strident satire novel is merely the continuation of the real insanity of digital comment culture.«

»And so Meyer reaches for the only weapon remaining to him against stupidity and ignorance: the razor-sharp sword of black humour.«

»The world as a monstrous grotesque, the insanity that has long since become part of our present-day lives flashing up in lurid colours.«

»The bestseller sequel is a bold step away from part one: instead of counting on Swiss local colour and romcom-style charm, Meyer goes for fast-paced action.«

»Meyer’s use of the grotesque creates an entertaining work. Decorum is ignored, allowing shamelessness to shine through. A great comedy.«

»Thomas Meyer is the shooting star of the Swiss literary world.«

»Anyone hoping for a simple follow-up to Mordecai ›Motti‹ Wolkenbruch’s adventures in love will be disappointed by Wolkenbruch’s Reckless Rendez-Vous with the Seductive Spy – and all the better for it!«

»The author takes unmistakable pleasure in deriding the postwar Nazis for their new ›Führer‹ and new ›Lebensborn‹ programme.«

»It’s actually a wonderful satire on the prejudices against Jews and the ›Jewish world conspiracy‹. [. . .] Unfortunately it’s also a satire with a very serious background, as we saw from the attack in Halle.«

»Scintillating in numerous sections. Prejudices crumble to the ground, leaving only a pitiful heap.«

»This novel couldn’t be more topical. And perhaps that’s why Thomas Meyer’s wit comes across so deftly.«

»It’s a wild ride with Thomas Meyer.«

»It almost makes you want to cry out: Now that’s Jewish humour!«

»Meyer’s debut novel examines traditional Jewish values in a delightfully witty way, plays with prejudices and combines wordplay with situation comedy.«

»He has good ideas, and refers to contemporary cases.«

»Meyer has written a sharp, highly-charged and intelligent book. He trusts the reader to understand his wicked humour.«

»It sounds – and is – absurd, but it abounds with cunning wit and black, at times brutal, humour.«
