'At last a politician who can write' SEBASTIAN FAULKS
The Times Political Book of the Year
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'
