5.0 out of 5 stars Things he does know, 22 Jun 2008
By Ms. Ruth Slavid (London, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Knowledgable, erudite and very very funny. Hughes writes about his early experiences in the art world, but also about growing up in Australia, and apart his father's time as a hero of the World War One flying. It is packed with an eclectic mix of information and reminiscence - really solid research, lots of gossip and plenty of laughs - all made a joy to read because Hughes really knows how to write. From a terrible Christmas dinner to the floods of Florence, he moves jolts you from laughter to horror.
