From the reviews of 'Stuart': 'A remarkable biography. Unforgettably moving. A gripping read.' Tim Lott, Sunday Times 'With his first book, Alexander Masters!has achieved something remarkable. He has, without patronising, given a voice to the "underclass"; at the same time, without preaching, he shows us the value of even the most damaged of human lives!a powerful book, humane, instructive and entirely original.' Sunday Telegraph 'I feel so strongly about this strange, funny, sad book that I hardly know where to begin!My enthusiasm feels almost limitless. A page-turner.' Observer 'Bollock brilliant. Possibly the best biography I have ever read. Just about perfect.' Mark Haddon, author of 'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time'. 'Unique and wonderful' Daily Mail 'This is a very rare and haunting book!A great first book.' Andrew O'Hagan 'Good books like this appear about once every five years. It's been years since I've been so delighted by a book and so surprised by it!When I'd finished I felt bereft, as if I'd lost an old friend.' Zadie Smith 'Funny and original, a startling book ! By the end I was doubled up in tears, but throughout I was often doubled up with laughter. It is dazzling.' Vogue
