5.0 out of 5 stars Devastating, 8 May 2007
By Thomas Cooper (London, UK) - See all my reviews
Devastating. Through a series of extravagantly counterintuitive detournements, deliberate solecisms and a fresh and shocking schizoid logic, Littlejohn delicately intimates his troubled relationship with his own sexuality and his anomie in the face of a late capitalist society that has yet to afford him either respect or love. A startling account of spiritual desolation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational, 11 May 2007
There are those who credit Plato with defining that obscure and fluctuating artefact which has been termed the 'western mind'. Perhaps we might admit the philosophies of Jesus of Galillee and Freidrich Nietzche into that elite club of thinkers who have contributed to its further elucidation - but never before has a work emerged of which we can triumphantly declaim: Plato is obscured, we have our new republic!

With a lacerating intelligence Littlejohn dissects his subject, exposing for all time the inadequacies of those who would make us weak. Let us move forward. Let us see this not as the end to the process of social thought (though that is, perhaps, what it is) but the beginning instead of a new era, a new politics, a new humanity. There is no more right and left, there is only Right, that blighted syllable now reclaimed for all time by Littlejohn - a man for whom the lost titles of Fuhrer and Duce can finally be taken back from the grubby paws of history.

Wonderful.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beguiling,, 15 May 2007
Top flight! Once more John LittleRichard hits the nail on the head, we're losing what made this country great - hack journalism.

In a deftly coded satire on modern journalism Littlejohn reminds us of The Daily Mail's support of Oswald Mosley and the British Union of Fascists.

With his continual reference to 'recycling nazis' and 'the country our grandparents fought for' he brilliantly alludes to the papers owner Lord Rothermere, a friend and supporter of both Benito Mussolini and Adolf Hitler, which influenced the Mail's political stance toward them up to 1939.

If you like LittleJohns opinions I urge you to get somebody to read it out aloud for you, priceless!
