Review: Deeply insightful - I bought this book in 2016 as I thought it would help me gain an insight into my dear son’s alcoholism. The excruciating pain and torment of that period meant that it was late-2024 before I stumped up the courage to read it. For me it was the most moving book I have ever read. Gill’s eloquence allied to the rawness of his story captures exactly what alcoholism is. Others have tried but Gill nails it. His spiritual and philosophical insights are a delight as, obviously, is the sheer quality of his prose. Gill is also hilariously funny. On page 197 he recounts an innuendo-laden conversation between his fellow Tatler writers about a generously-hung acquaintance that had me in stitches. Having reached the age of 63 one realises how cruel it was for Adrian to be taken from us at only 62. He had so much more to offer this world. However, I want to avoid finishing on a sombre note. I absolutely loved this book so much so that it led me to craft my first ever book review! Moreover, it has created an urgent imperative to read all his other books.
Review: A good read. - Prior to reading this book I had not been a fan of AA Gill, always thought he was an over opinionated verbose prat. However, after reading this well written book I have adjusted my analysis of the man. He gives a thoroughly honest, indeed on occasions humorous account of his life, which is a good read. Given his acute dyslexia and life experiences he did well. Certainly worth a read. RIP A.A.G.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What a life to have been distilled, poured and consumed.
*by R***B on 23 February 2020*

AA Gill always impressed me with his prose whilst alive and its a shame we will no longer be able to slave over his acerbic wit and insights but this is a brilliant read that covers a period in his life where even if it was a common theme through out he has chosen to allow us to view it in its rawest form. Genuinely laugh out loud moments punctuated by aching sadness and self reflection, i thoroughly enjoyed this and feel a little privileged to have been invited into Gills life during what was a very turbulent period on the surface and a hurricane of addiction and insecurity beneath that surface. A real gem of a book, whether you knew of the man before this or just fancy a look into aspects of humanity and pain that we probably all share combined with wit and love then this is a top notch read. AA Gill we salute you. Five Stars.
