Slightly Foxed in . . . Shanghai

‘It has been a great pleasure to read your summer edition of Slightly Foxed. To meet so many old friends over my early morning cup of tea has been a lasting stimulus throughout the day. Although forced to ‘give up my day job’ over 20 years ago, life seems more hectic than ever. The cover picture, and internal illustrations, especially Malgudi Station, are superb, and the print-size, paper colour and general format are all most attractive.’

‘I received a sub for my birthday last year and have just renewed for three years. I can’t tell you how much I love SF. A little companion to take for reading on trains, waiting in queues or in the afternoon as the sun goes down. Reconfirms my view that England has the greatest collection of wonderfully eccentric over-educated people who every quarter demonstrate the benefits of a classical education. Only problem is you sending me broke as when I see mention of a book I haven’t heard of I get on the second hand book sites searching for it. Alas I find them and then buy them . . .’
