Media Reviews

Witheringly funny, illuminated by astonishing brilliance * Observer *
Enormously readable and very funny * Cosmopolitan *
Highly entertaining, acerbic and wickedly observant... certain to become as much part of the verbal shorthand as was Nancy Mitford's U and Non-U, a generation ago * The Economist *
