What people say about the Speccy Breakdown book

I’m collecting here responses to A Speccy Man Has A Breakdown


"It’s wonderful. Funny, truthful, heartbreaking and deadly serious all at the same time and the drawings are just delicious. Deserves a wide audience." — Julie Myerson, author of Home and The Lost Child

"What a tough, shining, fiercely charming thing you’ve made. It reminded me so much of Michael Rosen’s Sad Book. It’s oddly lovely to see how a wide-ranging, talented mind like yours patiently handles this material, and begins to make something beautiful. I’m deeply sorry you went through what you did, but equally grateful you found the courage and generosity to share. It will help many people directly, as well as part of a matrix of honesty around mental health experiences that holds us all." — Rhik Samadder, author of I Never Said I Loved You

"I read it in one sitting. Warm, insightful, beautiful and even amusing." — Tim Lott, author of The Scent of Dried Roses
