    Not one I've read / got. Not one I can resist either!

    I liked this review, which summed up my view of the great man's writings to a Tee:

    "Reading his books, you find a friend. Suddenly the sharpness is directed at other people, and the voluminous brain is at your service." (Independent on Sunday )

    Spot on! I met the great man once, at Dixter, and found him much more accessible, friendly and welcoming than say, for instance, Beth Chatto.
