      Good, quick and entertaining read. Not to mention some good advice for collectors: it's not about investing.
    • 3/5
      Successful British art collector Charles Saatchi provides answers to questions posed to him by reporters and everyday folk. There are some interesting moments, however his musings are like the purposely-obscure sound bites of a young musician being interviewed. It’s all a bit glib, cool and pop, quite like the Young British Art movement he was so supportive of in the 1990s. A very quick, slightly funny and mostly quirky read.
