Unabridged Audiobook
Love this - I sees the world in a very similar way to David Mitchell - his off-topic thoughts on James Bond I agree with totally
a great take on our maniacal monarchs
Excellent. I deeply dislike the royal family, so I will savour this again soon. I particularly liked the closing chapter. Mitchell is spot on. There have always been amazing people in the world, but the royal aren’t: none of them. From the off, ‘royalty’ was man-made, conjured out of thin air by the biggest bullies to justify and preserve wealth they had acquired through dubious means. And in my humble opinion nothing has changed. In summary: if you can’t stand the notion of ‘kings and queens’, you’ll love this book.
Supremely funny. Maybe evening a bit of a rallying call to eat the rich.
Absolutely loved it. David's humour balances perfectly the heavy subject matter.
A brilliant book. I wish I had had this when I was learning history so much fun and hilarious throughout
I have already revisited the book several times. Fantastic.
