Critics Review
Tells the story with a raconteur’s relish and a cast of shady characters straight out of a Graham Greene novel
“Tells the story with a raconteur’s relish and a cast of shady characters straight out of a Graham Greene novel” Q magazine “A riot of boys, booze and 80s excess…a great raconteur and his snide asides are a joy…Bitchier than an Elton John put down” Elle “Reading this is like sitting across a table groaning with foie gras, listening to a raconteur extraordinaire ramble through an alcoholic mist…tremendous fun” Gay Times “Funny and totally absorbing” Pink Paper “Richly funny and entertaining..some of it reads like a big, gay Bond thriller; other bits are pure, pungent travelogue” Mojo
