Alexander Fuller

<strong>AUTHOR’S NOTES:</strong> "I tried to describe myself in one sentence once, and ended up writing a memoir." We swap sentences with Alexander Fuller.

Owen Sheers has a rollicking good story to tell. But he writes (as he says of his distant uncle’s method of constructing letters), "well-defined words placed one after the other, carefully building the sentences like a bricklayer laying his bricks tenderly in the wet cement to build himself a wall". It makes for a suffocating read. Alexander Fuller reviews <i>The Dust Diaries</i>.
