  1. 'Storytelling, architecture, painting and poetry. A few rare novels excel in all 4 categories. The Ghost of Neil Diamond is one such book’
  2. V.S.Naipaul. Publishd at 25. Aged 39, 1971, 5 books under his belt, height of his powers, earns 779 pounds a year from a few thousand books.
  3. Years ago someone said E. Waugh's The Loved One would be 'such a treat'. But it isn't. It's characterless, repetitive, tinny and unfunny.
  4. First bad Amazon review. Outrage. I never gave her permission to read The Ghost of Neil Diamond, for goodness' sake. She likes Twilight!!!!
