Clive James died on Sunday and you can't help feeling that someone with a great intellect and sense of humour has passed on. I must have read and re-read his Unreliable Memoirs at least ten times and it never failed to make me laugh.

| Quote: Any encounter with James, either in print or in person, left you desperate to go and open a book, watch a film or a TV show, or hunt down a recording," said Don Paterson, poetry editor at James's publisher Picador. "With Clive's passing we lose the wisest and funniest of writers, a loyal and kind friend, and the most finely-stocked mind we will ever have the fortune to encounter." | |
