Holes in the new Parker biography?
The Emperor of Wine, a biography of Robert Parker by journalist Elin McCoy, is published this month in the US and will be out early next year in the UK.

(Like many of my, and Parker’s, generation, I found the bit that stuck in my mind was the passing reference to his trip to Morocco to score some really good hash.)
