A Matter Of Death And Death

I only ever had one conversation with AA Gill – the recently deceased Sunday Times journalist – and, considering his ascerbic, and sometimes downright nasty, style of writing, he seemed remarkably pleasant and polite.

But there's no getting away from the fact that this was someone who admitted he shot a baboon to find out what it felt like to kill someone. And then wrote about it. Made it into another deliberately provocative article.

Some deaths you can mourn. Some you can't.
