Not bitchy, not snide, not angry, but not fawning nor deferential either. ”'Craig Brown achieves the impossible by finding a tone in which to write about monarchy. Moreover, he has invented an entirely new genre, of which it is a masterpiece … The list of the Princess's 'rumoured' lovers - up to and wickedly including Dusty Springfield - sparked my decision to buy this book as a Christmas present for everybody I know, and for those I don't.” - Country Life

”'If you want a book that will have you punching your pillow in helpless laughter, this is it. ”'Hugely entertaining … brilliantly written, with a wonderful sardonic edge but also a thoughtful, at times even moving tone” - Spectator ‘A cross between biography and satire that perfectly displays Brown’s rare skills as journalist and parodist’, Mark Lawson, Guardian, Books of the Year. ”'A playful, impish approach…Brown gives us lots of wonderful incidental detail…The deftly amused writing constantly tugs the corners of your mouth upwards” - Evening Standard ”'Craig Brown has brilliantly drawn together the component parts of a complex woman” - The Oldie ”'The only royal biography of the year worth handing the Queen’s head over for, Ma’am Darling is a modern and unconventional portrait of an old-fashioned princess as distilled and pickled through the genius of Craig Brown” - Helen Davies, Sunday Times ”'Consistently hilarious and eye-opening” - Tim Adams, Observer ”'A biography teeming with the joyous, the ghastly and the clinically fascinating” - Hannah Bett, The Times Brown has done something amazing with Ma’am Darling: in my wilder moments, I wonder if he hasn’t reinvented the biographical form” - Observer
