"Sharp and wickedly sexy, Boogie Woogie is the look at the contemporary art world we've all been waiting for. Like Tom Wolfe's The Painted World. it will be required reading in twenty years; in the meantime, read it and laugh. Satire doesn't come any more brilliant than this" (Cressida Connolly). "A witty and painfully accurate portrait of the art world in a beautifully constructed tale. No sleep for you the night you open it!" (Charles Saatchi).
