I got the book to try to figure out how to sell Charles some of my art. For artists, this book is a chainsaw through the jungle. Direct, funny, brutal, hopeful. A quick read, where information trumps style and smugness.

A relatively interesting interview with Saatchi, but I wouldnt expect this to be published as a book... probably something that should be published on an art magazine instead. Not worth the cost.

Before reading this book, I did not think much of Saatchi. After reading this delightful book, I think that he is very funny, and smart. I love his short to the point answers to some good as well as silly questions.This is a fast, very satisfying read that left me laughing. I recommend it highly. By the way, I am a professional artist and sculptor, so I understood the storie and humor behind his words.

I hated the ecotistical mood the author used. My wife, however, loved it. She is the artist and tho book was meant for her. Subsequently you get a high rating and I HIT THE MARK.

This is a fun and illuminating read for anyone who would like to know about some of Saatchi's opinions about art and the art world in general. I like Saatchi's sense of humor. His wife ain't too shabby either (Nigella Lawson).

High-quality paperback w/ sewn binding and decent paper stock.

THis is a ridiculous book, and will be of interest only to Charles Saatchi and those who worship him.

SAATCHI IS MARVELOUS, EVERYTHING HE SAYS SUPER,

BUT THE BOOK I RECEIVED MUST BE A REJECTED COPY

BECAUSE PAGES 105 TO 120 ARE MISSING.....

WORSE YET, OTHER PAGES HAVE BEEN INSERTED IN THEIR PLACE
