Autobiography

Autobiography by The Smith’s frontman Morrissey was published last month. The Penguin Classics cover has attracted much attention, although the reception has been generally positive. Critics have noted the “beautifully measured prose style”, while Colin Paterson on the Today programme suggested that it is “funnier than the Iliad.”
