If you're tired of Brexit (and honestly, who isn't by now?), this book is the perfect antidote : a tongue - in-cheek allegory so ridiculous it almost seems plausible given the government's recent shenanigans. The author skewers the arrogance of the ruling class in a world which they increasingly fail to control. Easy to read and entertaining, I highly recommend this novella (and the narrator of the Audible version is excellent).

Humorous take on our turbulent times
