Simon Gray: The Smoking Diaries [2008] Condition:New but our relationship with trees

but our relationship with trees has many dimensions beyond mere practicality

Simon Gray: The Smoking Diaries [2008] Condition:New but our relationship with treesOne of Britain's most amusing and original writers reflects on a life filled with cigarettes (continuing), alcohol (stopped), several triumphs and many more disasters; a record of shame, adultery, friendship and love. Few diarists have ever been so frank about themselves, and even fewer so entertaining.
