‘Richly rewarding...A minor masterpiece. His portrait of his absurd and loveable father is extraordinarily touching; that of the failure of his relationship with his mother scarcely less so. The book is extremely funny in places, extremely poignant in others and extremely well-written throughout – in fact, I haven’t enjoyed anything so much in ages.’ Sunday Telegraph
‘Elegiac, reflective and very funny.’ TLS
‘Highly engaging’ Independent
‘Funny and moving...Few [memoirs] are written with as much skill and sensitivity as this one. Moving without being mawkish, Hastings’s book is a trove of marvellous stories’ Sunday Times
‘This brave and poignant book is the self-portrait of an extremely talented outsider who has spent his life trying to live up to his father’s achievements. It is also the emotional journey of a son’s heart-rending non-relationship with his mother.’ Daily Telegraph
‘In this slim, delightful book [Hastings] reveals himself as never before.’ Andrew Marr, FT
‘A brilliantly entertaining book, full of funny, well-told stories.’ Scotsman
