'Autobiography' review in The Economist

"...seems crippled by self-consciousness yet lacking self-awareness."

"As he sighs another sigh that the world has not quite ended yet, or that "There is now no escape but death" (when he does not get hired in a job as a postman), it seems as if he is putting on a pose."

Pose. Persona. Avatar. Very clever and skilful in 1983, ridiculous now. In other words, as Carole Cadwalladr wrote:
"Morrissey, you're a fraud"



"Sod Morrissey, a bitter, old hasbeen who a couple of years ago told the Guardian that "it's a relief to feel relaxed in more places than just one" (he has homes in Los Angeles, Rome, Switzerland and Britain) and who called the Chinese a "subspecies" for their treatment of animals."

"Eff off, Morrissey. And all who sail within him."
