‘This visceral true story was at once so moving that I wanted to put it down and process its contents, but equally so gripping that I couldn’t stop reading. A testament to the author’s inner strength, this is honest storytelling at its finest’ @attitudemag.bsky.social on Richard Hall’s I’m Fine

‘This amiable satire has been described as a war on woke, but it’s actually more Waugh, with a posh old-fashioned vibe and beautifully written. The plot’s quite complex but Gardner is wonderful at milieu. Great fun’ The Daily Mail on @anthonygardnera.bsky.social’s ALL GOD’S CREATURES
