The most fascinatingly provocative, intimate study of an artist I have ever read
Patrick Skene Catling, Evening Standard
It preserves precisely the aspects of Bacon that will be hardest for scholarly researchers to capture... no-one can convey better than Farson the fun of Bacon's company and the louche adventures of the Soho underworld
Lynn Barber, Independent on Sunday
Positively Runyonesque...well-written, entertaining, and above all, thought-provoking
David Mellor, Daily Telegraph
Startlingly revealing
