101 chance meetings, juxtaposing the famous and the infamous, the
artistic and the philistine, the pompous and the comical, the
snobbish and the vulgar, told by Britain's funniest writer. Life is
made up of humans meeting one another. They speak, or don't speak.
They get on, or fall out. They laugh, they cry, are excited, are
indifferent. One on One is a chain of 101 extraordinary but true
encounters, from Tolstoy rumbling Tchaikovsky in 1876 to George
Galloway baiting Michael Barrymore in 2006. The Royal Family giggle
at T.S. Eliot, Walter Sickert draws the curtains on the
carol-singing Edward Heath, Youssoupoff assassinates Rasputin,
Marilyn Monroe commissions Frank Lloyd Wright. Circular in its
construction, panoramic in its breadth, One on One is a book like
no other. 'Brown's glorious book is an original and a complete
delight' Miranda Seymour, Sunday Times, Books of the Year
