Year of the Jouncer Reviews

* 'Gray's digressions are as brilliant as they are idiosnycratic. I hope that Gray is already jotting down his thoughts and insights for a forthcoming volume' Paul Bailey, Sunday Times * 'A trenchant, funny and surprisingly mellow book' Michael Arditti, Daily Mail * 'Gray is always sharp, clever, eminently readable ... laugh-out-loud digressions ... utterly hilarious' Ranjit Bolt, Observer * 'Gray is an absolute genius...the very best thing he has ever done' Daily Express * 'A great achievement, a terrific read, every page crammed with jokes, philosophical observations and miniature portraits of Grays' family and friends' Spectator
