Apology to Hugh Lunn

Letters to the Editor | February 2011

In our November 2010 issue we published a review by Peter Conrad of Hugh Lunn’s book Words Fail Me. Mr Lunn has complained that the review describes him as racist, anti-immigration, intellectually lazy and regressive. We accept that it was wrong to portray Mr Lunn in this fashion and we apologise for doing so. –ED
