A tour of literary festivals in 2018 produced the following reviews “A fabulous evening – thoroughly recommended. (Rye), “a wonderful evening packed full of showmanship, storytelling, intrigue, poetry and song” (Wymondham) and “Bob Dylan and Columbo collide in this fascinating globe-trotting mystery…gloriously entertaining.” (Wellington).
“A tour de force; part Antiques Roadshow, part Crown Court and with a little bit of Britain’s Got Talent thrown in…a wholly entertaining experience…it’s quirky but a whole lot of fun.”
Norfolk Cricket Society
“It’s not just cricket – whether you love the sound of leather on willow or just enjoy a ripping yarn, Grahame’s a true all-rounder who had our audience laughing, singing, questioning and clapping from the first ball bowled to the last.”
Cardiff Book Festival
“What a great night: a packed clubhouse was thoroughly enthralled by the story of the Six Sixes and the ball. Delivered in an excellent mix of narration, poetry and song. Brilliant, totally enjoyed by all.”
Kimberley Institute CC
“Grahame’s passion and enthusiasm, and ability to grab and keep the attention of the audience, made for an unforgettable night.”
Evesham Festival of Words
“A fascinating story, wonderfully told, but also a great piece of investigative journalism. A thoroughly enjoyable talk!”
Charlie Walker, Adventurer
“What a wonderful event. Grahame combines history, “crime”, poetry and music in a highly entertaining and unique performance. Read the book – or if you get the chance, hear him talk; the evidence is compelling.”
Wirral BookFest
“Completely engaged the audience throughout, using the kind of versatile delivery that would have credited an international bowler. It was fascinating for all, especially those for whom cricket is a passion.”
Frome Festival
