‚Seldom is a book as funny, important and timely … I was laughing out loud at the same time as my blood was running cold‘ JOHN CLEESE ‚Viciously funny… an exhilarating satire‘ THE TIMESWhat if calling someone stupid was illegal?
Although LIONEL SHRIVER has published many novels, a collection of essays, and a column in the Spectator since 2017, and her journalism has featured in publications including the Guardian, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, she in no way wishes for the inclusion of this information to imply that she is more ‚intelligent‘ or ‚accomplished‘ than the average person. The outdated meritocracy of intellectual achievement has made her a bestseller multiple times and awarded her prizes including the Orange Prize, but she accepts that all of these accidental accolades are basically meaningless. She lives in Portugal and Brooklyn, New York.
