Toby Young

    Toby Young je britský novinár známy svojim ostrým, často provokatívnym vtipom, ktorý mu priniesol uznanie aj kontroverzie. Jeho písanie zaznamenáva jeho skúsenosti pri pohybe v často nemilosrdnom svete žurnalistiky a zábavy, pričom čitateľom ponúka humorný, no prenikavý pohľad na profesionálne ambície a ich nástrahy. Svoje témy spracováva s výraznou zmesou sebairónie a ostrosť pohľadu, vďaka čomu sú jeho príbehy relatable a vysoko zábavné.
