Media Reviews

Gossipy, funny, perceptive and vicious extract. Every dip-in is a sheer delight. -- Kenneth Baker * * Observer * *
Brilliant ... It's the perfect bedtime book. * * Evening Standard * *
This gives a breath-taking selection from some of the world's greatest diarists throughout the ages ... a treat for browsing or longer sessions. * * Scotland on Sunday * *
A sumptous feast. This inspired anthology of diverse diary entries, selected chiefly for their honesty, is relentlessly thought-provoking. * * The Independent * *
