Joel Golby is based in east London, but I think that goes without saying. His work has appeared in a number of magazines that do not exist anymore (NOT his fault) and a few that still just about do. He does not currently have a podcast but you have to assume one is in the works. Four Stars is his second book.

‘Funny, painful, relatable and honest. Full of the hidden depths and details that only Joel Golby can scavenge. I love this book’ DOLLY ALDERTON‘Joel Golby at his best: darkly reflective, so, so funny, and life-affirming in quite an unhinged way. I loved it’ MONICA HEISEY‘Joel can turn the most mundane aspects of life into something totally magnificent. I was laughing so much whilst reading this book I was shhh’d at on the Eurostar by a very stern woman – zero-star review for her’ AMELIA DIMOLDENBERG‘As funny as you’d expect from Joel Golby, but also both moving and sincere. A joy to read’ BELLA MACKIE‘Joel Golby’s writing induces full-on jealousy in me. He’s a horribly funny, silly, opinionated old cow, and yet his words are actually rather lovely to read’ JACK ROOKE‘Nobody captures the torturous contradictions of being a sentient primate in the modern world quite like Joel Golby. FOUR STARS will make you laugh throughout, then it will rip your heart out, place it in front of you and say: “See. This is what I was writing about all along.” Fantastic. Hard recommend’ KONRAD KAY‘High Fidelity for the generation who could never afford a shop’ ELLA RISBRIDGER‘Whether it’s the ambitious construction and moving climax, emerging themes of millennials dealing with rudderless mortality or simply pound-for-pound laughs, I can’t really think of anything else like this book. And that’s a really good thing. Five stars’ OOBAH BUTLER‘Funnier and more profound than a book has any business being’ NATHAN FOAD'Extremely funny and extremely charming, striking at the trivialities of our modern existence with razor-sharp clarity. Golby’s voice, though acerbic, is cut through with a discreet optimism' RAVEN SMITH
