What do Eddie Izzard, Gerry Adams, Kelvin MacKenzie and Jarvis Cocker have in common? Nothing, one sincerely hopes, except that Lynn Barber has interviewed them. She calls this collection her 'dinner party from hell' - a wild and wicked assembly of pop stars and pundits, comedians and artists, film actors and politicians, and even - a rarity for Barber - the odd woman. Lynn Barber has won more British Press Awards than any other interviewer and is credited with rescuing the star interview from the doldrums of deference. Publicity agents reputedly quail at her approach - not for nothing is she known as the Demon Barber. But in this collection of her recent interviews from the Observer, the Daily Telegraph and the Independent on Sunday, she shows the qualities of insight and candour, as well as bruising honesty, that have earned her her reputation.
