"I LIKE TO FIND MYSELF IN THE WRITING OF JENNY DISKI.
IN HER WONDERFUL MEMOIR SKATING TO ANTARCTICA I RECOGNIZED HER LONDON, AND SAW HER ECCENTRIC POSTWAR CHILDHOOD AS A MIRROR OF MY OWN. HER ADVENTURE TO THE ICE CAP HAS SINCE BECOME A SYMBOL OF MY GENERATION'S DESIRE TO CATCH THE EARTH BEFORE IT FALLS (AND WE FALL WITH IT). THE SIXTIES OFFERS ANOTHER INSIGHTFUL AND ACCURATE MIRROR OF MY PARTICULAR LONDON MOD GENOME, REFLECTING MUCH OF WHAT I REMEMBER, AND REMINDING ME OF MUCH I HAD FORGOTTEN." -PETE TOWNSHEND
"MORDANT, ENTERTAINING, AND SHOT THROUGH WITH HER CUSTOMARY DRY WIT, JENNY DISKI'S VIEW OF THE SIXTIES IS FREE OF THE SENTIMENTALITY THAT CHARACTERIZES SO MANY ACCOUNTS OF THE DECADE. HER LONDON LIFE WAS CROSSED BY MANY OF THE MOST INTERESTING CULTURAL CURRENTS OF THE ERA. AND IN THIS SHORT, PERSONAL ACCOUNT SHE LOOKS BACK AT HER YOUNGER SELF WITH A CLEAR EYE AND AN OPEN MIND." -HARI KUNZRU, AUTHOR OF MY REVOLUTIONS
