‘I don’t believe I’ve ever read a more eclectic magazine than Slightly Foxed – articles from the 14th Britannica via C. P. Snow to Rex Stout. If I can resist the bibliography at the end before I begin to read an article, it can be like taking a chocolate from a box blindfold.’ – M. Bond, Barry

‘I'm not sure if the rules of 'Desert Island Discs' allow a periodical instead of a book; but if they do – and no doubt the people at Hoxton Square could arrange delivery by homing albatross – I'd go for a subscription to Slightly Foxed and ration myself, very strictly, to an article a week . . . And I know I'd still read it in one go the day it arrived.’
