Reviews
`Gretchen Henderson's cultural history of ugliness skates, at an entertainingly high speed, across large swathes of territory, cultural, historical and biological, always fascinating.' - Times Literary Supplement; `Ugliness in Henderson's generous handling becomes a synonym for whatever is shocking, difficult, displeasing in one moment but reveals itself as containing real value and delight in the next.' - The Guardian
