"Maggi Hambling is as articulate in person as she is adventurous in her painting. In conversation with Andrew Lambirth she is funny, moving and occasionally scurrilous. This book is a rich source of information about her life and art." Charles Saumarez Smith, Director, National Gallery

"The body of work is one of the great contemporary achievements in British art. Maggi Hambling belongs to no school but the universal, and to no trend but the individual and the authentic. Public and private, serious and gay (in every sense), grave and light, mysterious and clear, if there is one quality that may be singled out in so restlessly searching and varied an artist, it is energy. Life, humour, wit and a fiercely absolute commitment to the moment charge her works. Andrew Lambirth is her perfect interlocutor." Stephen Fry
