'These sulphurous annual round robins are not just cry-makingly funny and profane... there are also arresting insights into art, literature and life and flashes of beautiful seriousness. The comedy is exquisitely well observed.' The Telegraph 'If they ever award medals for comic genius Lewis will be a shoo-in for gold... Hilarious.' The Mail on Sunday 'Roger Lewis is a genius writer, and he knows it.' Lynn Barber 'I cannot think of anyone I love or admire who would not enjoy reading this. It's dark, savage, scabrous and enraged. It is also the funniest, truest, most engaging thing I've read all year.' Michael Gove, The Times 'This is one of the strangest books you will ever read. It is also the funniest. And the most reckless ... If you like black comedy, and bad taste, you will find yourself in Narnia here...' The Spectator 'The funniest book of the year. This is comedy of a rare quality.' The Sunday Express 'The most brilliantly funny and genuinely thought-provoking book of the year.' Sunday Times
