Our greatest living satirist Sunday Times



The most screamingly funny living writer Mail on Sunday





From the bestselling and award-winning author of Ma'am Darling and One Two Three Four, a selection of Craig Brown's finest writing collected together for the first time.







Haywire presents a survival guide to the 21st century.





The acclaimed biographer of Princess Margaret and The Beatles considers such diverse topics as gloves, outer space, the Marx Brothers, Richard Dawkins, Hitlers hair, John Stonehouse, Katie Price, tongue-twisters, Bruce Springsteen, Harry and Meghan, Stanley Spencer, Brian Epstein, Downton Abbey, Sigmund Freud and Karl Lagerfelds cat.



With the full battery of the humourist's armoury clerihews, tongue twisters, whimsy, parody, farce, satire, social observation, nonsense Brown skewers the fads and delusions of the contemporary world.

Recenzijas

The most screamingly funny living writer Barry Humphries, Mail on Sunday



The greatest satirist since Max Beerbohm Elaine Showalter Guardian



Craig Brown's humour will outlive his victims. His journalism is one of the few compensations for being British now David Sexton, Sunday Telegraph



A genius in every instance, the skill of the parodist dwarfs any achievement attributable to his subject Auberon Waugh, Daily Telegraph



He is the comic writer the rest of us admire from afar, and envy beyond the bounds of reason. How does he do it? Markus Berkmann, Spectator



Britains wittiest satirist The Times



[ Craig Brown] has an acutely attuned comic ear, an unmatched eye for spotting the absurdities of human behaviour and a bloodhound-grade nose for sniffing out phoniness and pretension Mail On Sunday
