  “This book makes me happy. He is such a great writer. He narrates the book himself and he speaks slowly,every word and sentence has time to be enjoyed.
  What detracts is his incessant name-dropping; he seems to be connected in some way to everyone.
  Toward the end he stops writing and begins responding and reacting to what others have written about him. He begins to sound tired, probably his intent.

  “Although not the equal to his earlier autobiography/memoir "Palimpsest", it's still absorbing, entertaining and, while his steps sometimes falter, offers a poignant glimpse into the aged iconoclast's extremely private relationship with his partner, the late Howard Austen, and his attempts to come to terms with Austen's death and his own impending exit from the stage.”
