Critics Review

Few writers could compete with the late, great A. A. Gill. Lap up his wonderful wit, merciless excoriations and lyrical musings in this collection of his very best journalism, covering everything from eating turtle to Iraq, dyslexia and Good Morning Britain - Evening Standard

[Gill] is breathtakingly rude, sharply perceptive and brilliantly funny all at once. But it isn’t all frothing invective. Gill’s travel writing … is gripping and moving in equal measure … Gill’s vivid reporting transports you right into the centre of wherever he is and will not let you go … [A] must-read collection of brilliant writing - Daily Express
