Sympathetic and extremely enjoyable
Daily Telegraph
Terrific
Daily Mail
Utterly gripping... hilarious, heartbreaking
India Knight, Sunday Times
Once in a blue moon comes a biography that has the texture of life-as-it-is-lived, the usual province of fiction... With stealth and sympathy, the biographer has followed his subject's footsteps into all sorts of strange by-ways, most of them frightening or humiliating or forlorn
Craig Brown, Daily Telegraph
Superb... it would be a brilliant picaresque novel, if it were not all true
Independent on Sunday
A splendidly entertaining romp through a life misled
New Stateman
[A] superb and sensational rummage inside the head of a man who was "full of strangeness and wonderful gamey variety"
Daily Express
A startling and brilliant biography that reads like a Rake's Progress for the 21st century
Daily Mail
A very funny book
Observer
