Haywire : the best of Craig Brown

Brown, Craig, 1957-2023
Book
Mixing parody, literary criticism, profiles, satire, light verse, anagrams, AND social observation, 'Haywire' gathers together the finest examples of Craig Brown's writing across the past fifteen years. From Mary Berry's 'Household Tips' to Robert Macfarlane's poetic prose, from profiles of such diverse figures as Sigmund Freud, John Stonehouse, and Katie Price to parodies of Jacob Rees-Mogg and Mary Beard, and from appreciations of the Marx Brothers and Les Dawson to essays on Brian Epstein and the slippery art of biography, 'Haywire' contains a bumper selection of work by the writer described by The Sunday Times as 'our greatest living satirist'.
