ABOUT A BOY
BIOMASS: 26 years old 5′10″ brown hair green eyes and writing a book.
CV STUFF: St Paul’s School + St John’s College, Cambridge + London School of Economics. Middle one by far the best. Used to work for a think tank. Occasional reviewer, but would like to do more.
LIKES: Reading and talking. Tony Hancock, Dianna Wynne Jones, the West Wing and the Wire. Out of fashion old-fashioned Tories: G. K. Chesterton, Anthony Powell, Edmund Burke. This song. Writing. Comics and slightly dubious fantasy. Being British.
DISLIKES: Exhibitions of martyrdom and self-pity. Facebook. “Social issues”. Feminism. The books of Ian McEwan.
And the bad photo:
Alright, alright - I reckon I look pretty cool there. It’s everyone else who thinks I look like a tool.
