Product description
The searing inside story of our broken politics from the former Cabinet minister and co-host of The Rest Is Politics.
"The most exceptional political memoir I've ever read" — Alan Johnson
"An instant classic" — Marina Hyde
"At last a politician who can write" — Sebastian Faulks
Over the course of a decade, Rory Stewart went from being a political outsider to standing for prime minister – before being sacked from a Conservative Party that he had come to barely recognise.
Uncompromising, honest and darkly humorous, this is his story of the challenges, absurdities and realities of political life. Instantly praised as a new classic, it is an astonishing portrait of our turbulent times.
"Genuinely eye-opening…always riveting, often horrifying" — iNews
"Beautifully written" — Guardian
"Hugely entertaining" — Evening Standard
