‘A genuine original. Poetical, philosophical, humane, completely charming and funny to boot.’ The Guardian
‘Charming, eccentric and uplifting, Auton is a talent to watch.’ The Independent
‘He is entirely compelling to watch. He’s a poet/writer/talker and it’s funny in parts but that’s not the point – there is something else happening, I’m not entirely sure what it is but it’s great and it wallops you in the belly.’ Daniel Kitson
‘Just Sad.’ Vanessa Feltz
