Reviews
Praise for Volume One: "Paul manages to season his cogent observations of COVID-19 with a dash of humour that makes you want to dip in again and again." - Valerie Bloom; "Witty and wise, astute and acerbic." - Tony Walsh; "He's never going to let a worldwide pandemic curb his creativity. COVID-19 will give up before he does. This book takes you on a Corolla-Coaster of emotions, but don't worry - with Paul you are in safe and well washed hands." - Henry Normal. Praise for the author: "Every day should have a Paul Cookson moment." - Simon Mayo; "Simple, direct and poetic. Caring, compassionate and funny." - Ian McMillan; "Wordsmithery of the highest order and wittiest bent." - Mark Radcliffe.
