A gifted journalist and public speaker, Marcus Berkmann is an ex-Independent on Sunday sports columnist and ex-Mail pop critic. He writes for the Spectator and Private Eye. His book The Rain Men (1996) is a modern classic that still regularly reprints. The Telegraph called it “the Fever Pitch of cricket” and Sir Tim Rice called it “a masterpiece”. Marcus – who claims to have two small children – views parenting with the combined eye of Miriam Stoppard and Bertie Wooster.
