Title : Letters from London - Julian Barnes - book
Summary :
Asked by the American magazine The New Yorker to write a series of reports on current events in England between 1990 and 1994, Julian Barnes became, in his own words, a "foreign correspondent in his own country." The result is fourteen hilarious "Letters from London" that take on Mrs. Thatcher, one of her favorite whipping boys, the entire royal family, and the unfortunate John Major, who didn't have the slightest chance of escaping her claws from the start. Add to that the account of a few inglorious episodes in English political life and a joyful visit to a maze maker (there is only one in the world, and of course, it is English). All this makes for a bracing and ferociously funny book.
