The publisher on this edition
Gossip of a higher sort' was how John Updike described the art of the review. Here, then, is the last collection of his most dazzling gossip, compiled shortly before his death in 2009. Displaying his characteristic humour and insight on subjects as varied as ageing, golf, dinosaurs and make-up, the delightful Higher Gossip bookends a legacy of over fifty celebrated titles and is is essential reading for lovers of literature.
