There'll Always be an England: Social Stereotypes from The Daily Telegraph - Couverture rigide

A brilliant new collection of stereotypes from the long running Daily Telegraph series.

In this hilariously mordant, yet touchingly sympathetic, book, no aspect of English life is spared. Victoria Mather and Sue Macartney-Snape return in sparkling form to immortalize those very English characters and situations we come across every day. For all of us, there'll always be an England, and, we're afraid, this is it...

Stereotypes include:

The Post Office Queue
The Cheryl Cole Wannabe
The Rebellious Congregation
The Pub Quiz Team
The Comical Dog Show
The Hateful Hosts
The Milkman
The Village Organist
The Pet Funeral

Praise for previous collections:

'Mather and Macartney-Snape are not so much observers, more collectors, pinning their victims like butterflies in a display cabinet ... Very enjoyable.' - Michael Parkinson

'With consummate skill the authors have once again skewered our national smugness' - Nicky Haslam

'A dazzling combination' - Jilly Cooper
