Extremely well-written, Wheeler's Cherry gets into the man's head and leads us through his complex life sympathetically. Never gets boring. R

Wahrscheinlich die langweiligste Biografie, die ich je gelesen habe, und hoffentlich die langweiligste, die ich je lesen werde.

This is a really excellent biography. It's quite hard to remain compelling reading when the pivotal event in a person's life happens early on, but Sara Wheeler manages it. It is ultimately a very moving book to the end.
