. . . and from writers
‘The arrival of a new issue of Slightly Foxed makes me drop everything. I read it from cover to cover and it immediately sends me off to order a number of the books that it features.’ Alexander McCall Smith
‘It’s a joy, a delight, a quarterly treat that drives me to the bookshelves, the bookshop or the library in search of forgotten or never-encountered pleasures. I won’t say that Slightly Foxed is essential, it’s just that I can’t live without it any more.’ Bernard Cornwell
‘It’s always a red-letter day when the post includes Slightly Foxed – gorgeous new cover, choice list of contents. I always find one title I plan to read – or an old favourite I’d forgotten about.’ Penelope Lively
‘For all “real readers” it’s exciting to open a new issue of Slightly Foxed, sure of meeting a kindred spirit in each little essay. This quarterly deserves its own space in the bookcase; later generations can quote from it to prove that good writing didn’t die with the twentieth century.’ Dervla Murphy
‘Sometimes deep, sometimes surprising, often eccentric, but always unputdownable.’ Posy Simmonds
‘A quarterly box of delights – always something unexpected to excite the taste buds of the bookish. I know it’s planned, but it feels fortuitous and that’s quite an art.’ Paul Routledge
