The Times diarist Hugo Rifkind has a new book out called “Overexposure“. Guido notices some interesting characters, especially the hero misfit news-hounds’ online source called “Greebo”. What kind of a stupid name is that? Apart from that flaw it is, according to the blurb, an “arch farce and rollicking thriller rolled into one, with unforgettable characters, brilliant dialogue and laugh-out- loud quips.” So pick up a copy at the airport on the way to the beach and expose yourself to the flashiest, edgiest comedy of modern life in recent years.
