About this listen
A SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
Piers Morgan welcomes the return of a common-sense world
They claimed it was a movement that would change society forever. Instead, it's been buried six feet under by common sense.
For a decade, “woke” infected every corner of our lives. Cancel culture ran riot. Men became toxic. Virtue signalling was everywhere. And if you dared disagree? You'd be terminated on the spot.
But then something extraordinary happened. All over the world, people woke up.
In this explosive and uproarious takedown, Piers Morgan charts the spectacular collapse of the most ridiculous ideology in human history. With his trademark wit and fearless honesty, he exposes the hypocrites, destroys the myths, and celebrates the heroes who refused to surrender to the woke brigade.
Inside, Morgan takes aim at the madness wherever it's hiding and calls out the absurdity with humour, logic, and outrage. He pulls no punches as he tackles:
- Hollywood hypocrisy – when celebrity virtue-signaling became it's own performance
- Environ-mentalists – how saving the planet turned into shouting about plastic straws
- Go Woke, Go Broke – from brand deals to the price of moral posturing
- Word Police – the battle over language and what you can and can't say
- And much more
But this isn't just about pointing and laughing at the wreckage. With his unique blend of savage humour and surprising wisdom, Morgan offers a roadmap for navigating our post-woke world and a less divided, more sensible society.
Woke is Dead is the provocative, hilarious and essential read for anyone who wants to understand how an entire civilisation briefly lost its mind.

Piers is unapologetic and he says what he thinks but he backs it up. I don’t agree with every opinion expressed in his book, however I concur that there is so much hatred and intolerance in the world today because of the extreme stance taken by so many people.
I agree that we are not responsible for the sins of our forebears. My family fled France under fear of death, during the reign of Louis XIV. I will not be seeking reparations from the French Government, as those responsible are long since dead and those who are alive are not guilty.
We should be able to have civilised conversations with each other, even where there are diametrically opposite views.
The world doesn’t feel like a safe place just now. There is a widening power and wealth imbalance. The erosion of democracy and government overreach engenders fear in our communities.
Art, literature and entertainment from the past, which gave pleasure to so many, is now dissected in an attempt to eradicate any views which don’t align with current thinking. This is part of the cancel culture. We learn from history, we don’t need to destroy everything from the past.
We must be able to enjoy life because it’s short. We need to experience joy in the simple things.
