Verbatim

"Had Glassco lived to be a centenarian—or even a mere nonagenarian—I very much doubt that he would have taken to social media except in one key area: his sex life. Here, the world would have become a less lonely place. I dare say it would be much easier to meet people who shared his interests over the Web than through personal ads."

Brian Busby talks about his literary biography of John Glassco, A Gentleman of Pleasure.

I read Glassco's memoir last year. Totally blown away! Keen to read Busby's take.

David, I can arrange to have a review copy sent to you, if you'd like.
