Quotes
“Large-brained and largehearted, and written with astonishing energy…Obviously and plangently full of love: love of life, love of story, love of art, love of daughters.” New York Times Book Review
“Australian author James brings his sharp critical eye to TV’s current golden age, providing witty and insightful musing on popular and critically acclaimed series of the past two decades.” Publishers Weekly
“Eminent literary and cultural critic James comes back to an old beat: reviewing the offerings on the small screen…Part of the critic’s work is to tell us precisely what we should wish to watch, of course, and here James, though doffing high-toned intellectualism, settles for the more elevated fare, about which he writes with unfailing insight…A gentler companion to Harlan Ellison’s The Glass Teat, the only flaw of which is that it’s too short, leaving readers wanting more.” Kirkus Reviews
