Book review: ‘The Year of the Jouncer’ by Simon Gray

‘The Year of the Jouncer’ by Simon Gray

The sequel to Simon Gray’s wonderfully funny blend of memoir and diary, The Smoking Diaries.

Not quite as entertaining as its predecessor, I think, but I still laughed out loud several times. And the bit where he tries to feed a family of black swans made stuff come out my nose.

Highly recommended.
