"Demented yet engaging ... signs of psychiatric disturbance ... wildly libellous." Sydney Morning Herald

"A great Aussie hoax ... [and] all their own work, set squarely in a rich tradition as Australian as Henry Lawson. It is fun - great fun." Canberra Times

"Very funny ... good-humoured sport." Australian Literary Review

"Brilliant, glorious, beautiful." Richard Fidler, ABC Radio Brisbane

"A fantastic book." Jonesy and Amanda, WSFM Breakfast

"An elegant publication. Buy it! You will be well-rewarded and entertained, just as I have been." Geoff Pryor, legendary Canberra Times cartoonist

"A f*****g funny book." Charles Firth, The Chaser

Oscar Brittle is the creation of Glenn Fowler, Christopher Smyth and Gareth Malone. In an eighteen month campaign to wrest control of the debates in the nation's newspapers and magazines from the wishy-washies and the weaklings, Oscar Brittle became (arguably) the most significant and powerful contributor to public debate in contemporary Australia. This book is a collection of published letters and their originals, published replies from various correspondents, email exchanges between Oscar and editors, as well as the rejected letters, all interspersed with gorgeous illustrations throughout.
