The Wee Review (UK) ★★★★

 

“A finely tuned performance”

“A tragi-comic triumph… Cole’s writing is delightfully subtle… (he is) extraordinary, displaying a brilliant precision that allows him to shift seamlessly from hump to pathos in an instant”

The List (UK) ★★★★

 

“This is clever and absorbing material and given how the subject could be alienating it is original in approach and highly creative in its delivery. Cole talks of a fading mind but he is not a fading talent. He offers a sense of dignity in this eclipse of the mind.”
