The Guardian: Utterly Compelling
“Bacon always insisted that he was simply portraying the reality of the conditions that had shaped him…. The power of this meticulously researched and utterly compelling biography lies not just in the confidence with which it demonstrates the truth of that statement, but in its quieter revelations.”
Elizabeth Lowry, ”Francis Bacon: Revelations review – a landmark biography,” The Guardian, February 10, 2021.
