In Woke, Titania McGrath demonstrates how everybody can play their part in the pursuit of social justice. As a millennial icon on the forefront of online activism, Titania is uniquely placed to guide her listeners through the often bewildering array of terminology and concepts that constitute 21st-century 'wokeness'. These new ideas often leave the general public bemused, particularly if they don't read the Guardian.

Being woke is actually much easier than people think. As Titania demonstrates, anyone can be an activist. By simply adding a rainbow flag to your Facebook profile, or calling out an elderly person who doesn't understand what 'nonbinary' means, you can change the world for the better. Indeed, social media has now made it possible to show how virtuous you are without having to do anything at all.

Timely and indispensable, Titania's step-by-step guide will help you to become the woke person you need to be in an increasingly progressive world. In a non-patronising manner, Titania will explain why you are wrong about everything and how to become more like her.

Passed the six-laugh test for me during the five minute preview, and is just full of brilliant, pseudo-progressive lines like "He-Man was at least progressive enough to announce his pronouns." She's a modern-day Nathan Barley.

It's made me want to be less judgemental, and ironically, since it takes the mickey out of her mercilessly, it got me thinking about my review of a Laurie Penny novella, which I dismissed entirely because of its ageism and other problematic elements.

Much as I enjoyed this book, though, half of the joke is missing, and that's the maniacal right-wingers on Twitter who take the bait and start ranting and raving at Titania. She cuts both ways but we only see one side of it here.

Needs a tv series

If you ever feel like aghast at the way our society has become so "PC" and feel like banging you're head against a brick wall, not sure whether to laugh or cry, then "Woke" is the book for you! This Hilarious piece of satire, sums up the ridiculous and mostly contradictory ideals of the "PC/cancel culture" A must for anyone feeling frustrated with it all! Highly recommend the audio book as the narration just adds to the comedy value!

Hilarious from start to finish- not for snowflakes

The joy of Titania McGrath’s Twitter feed is that even today, such obvious parody still fools so many into thinking it’s true. But the genius behind Titania McGrath’s Woke is that so many will think it’s a work of parody. Anyone paying attention to the expansion of social justice activism will recognise details from real life incidents that have been presented as parody. Doyle’s talent is not the invention of an absurd fiction but his absurd description of reality.

Doyle pulls off a superb bait & switch...

destroys woke logic by the original method of stating it - when put into words, it becomes even more obviously nonsense

on the money

I read the book first and enjoyed that but the superbly acted audiobook is even better. A wonderful rebuke of the ignorant and pathetic attitudes and ill-informed views of the woke.

Brilliant!!! Even better as an audiobook.
