We are delighted with Georgina Butler’s reviews, which are very popular with our readers too.

She is knowledgeable about the art form, informed about what she has seen, expresses her opinions clearly, and doesn’t lack the engaging quip too – and it is such a joy to have an author who needs no editing!
