What The Reviewers Say
Jasper Rees,
The Spectator (UK)
... perhaps his most remarkable and gripping work.
Catherine Taylor,
The Times Literary Supplement (UK)
... intense, darkly humorous and frequently claustrophobic.
DJ Taylor,
The Times (UK)
It is hard to think of a recent literary autobiography that pulls so few punches or is so nakedly self-revealing of the person that its author imagined himself to be.
