‘More than a touch of class . . .’

‘I hope you don’t mind this rather personal note, but I really want you to know what a blessing Slightly Foxed is. Having only recently discovered you, you cannot believe the good you have done. My mother, who has always been a great reader and of literary bent, has just been diagnosed with cancer, a shock for us all. I introduced her to Slightly Foxed in hospital and it lifted her spirits dramatically. She is now at home coming to terms with things and so I’ve ordered these back copies to help keep her spirits up because she has devoured every edition I have. Every time I visit her she mentions what a delight your reviews are and how wonderfully written and charming. Thank you so much, you are bringing her true pleasure at a very bleak time.’
