Am I Alone In Thinking...?

Product Description

Readers of the brilliant Telegraph Letters page as Ian Hislop recently lauded it will be fondly aware of the eclectic combination of learned wisdom wistful nostalgia & robust good sense that characterise its correspondence. But what of the 95 per cent of the papers huge postbag which never sees the light of day? Some of the best letters inevitably arrive too late for the 24/7 news cycle or dont quite fit with the rest of the days selection. Others are just a little too whimsical or indeed too risque to publish in a serious newspaper. & more than a few are completely & utterly (and wonderfully) mad such as the missives youll find within these pages from someone who signs himself merely as M" & believes himself to be the head of MI6. Now the Telegraph gives the authors of these unpublished letters the stage at last. Baffled furious defiant mischievous they inveigh & speculate on every subject under the sun from the rubbish on television these days to the venality of our MPs from Kate Winslets decolletage to this countrys unhealthy obsession with marmalade. All those Telegraph readers who wondered if anyone else had noticed that the lunatics had finally taken over the asylum & sat down to write to their favourite newspaper to test the waters
- they need howl into the void no longer. They are not alone."
