THE SMOKING DAIRIES - Simon Gray


This is the opposite of the Tynan diary.

Firstly, its not really a diary its an autobiography and secondly it was written when Gray was dieing of cancer, and like Tynan he was always broke, so it feels like a superannuation scheme for his family.

It has its moments and there is some good humour, but over all it was a struggle.

There are another three sequels but I'll be giving them a miss

THE SECRET LIFE OF J.EDGAR HOOVER - Anthony Summers

  A man who abused his position like no other public servant in history.  A vile little man.
