The searing inside story of our broken politics from the former Cabinet minister and co-host of The Rest Is Politics.

'The most exceptional political memoir I've ever read'
ALAN JOHNSON

'An instant classic'
MARINA HYDE

'At last a politician who can write'
SEBASTIAN FAULKS

Over the course of a decade, Rory Stewart went from being a political outsider to standing for prime minister - before being sacked from a Conservative Party that he had come to barely recognise.

Uncompromising, honest and darkly humorous, this is his story of the challenges, absurdities and realities of political life. Instantly praised as a new classic, it is an astonishing portrait of our turbulent times.
