Rezension zu „Working the Room “
'Dyer is becoming a character just as arch and seductive as that professional self-effacer from the previous generation, Alan Bennett.' - Observer 'Shrewd, funny, original ... very good company on the page.' - Andrew Motion, Guardian 'A national treasure.' - Zadie Smith 'A seductively straightforward writer ... like Orwell. Dyer writes engrossingly on everything from love of doughnuts to his sequestered working class childhood in Swindon.' - Will Self, Financial Times 'One of my favourite of all contemporary writers. I love his sense of the absurd, his pessimism mixed with robust good cheer, his beautifully crafted sentences, his jokes and his intelligence.' - Alain de Botton 'Languid, elegant, brilliantly conversational.' - Tim Adams, Observer
