Publisher's Summary:
The searing inside story of our broken politics from the former Cabinet minister and co-host of The Rest Is Politics. Over the course of a decade, Rory Stewart went from being a political outsider to standing for prime minister – before being sacked from a Conservative Party that he had come to barely recognise. Uncompromising, honest and darkly humorous, this is his story of the challenges, absurdities and realities of political life. Instantly praised as a new classic, it is an astonishing portrait of our turbulent times. BRITISH BOOK AWARDS NON-FICTION BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024 ‘Rory Stewart’s Politics on the Edge digs deeper than most. As well as a fascinating insider account of the Cameron-May-Johnson premierships, it is a scathing portrait of our flawed political system and a “rebarbative profession” that, despite Stewart’s appetite for public service, chewed him up and spat him out’ GUARDIAN ‘Genuinely eye-opening…always riveting, often horrifying’ iNEWS ‘Hugely entertaining’ EVENING STANDARD ‘The most exceptional political memoir I’ve ever read’ ALAN JOHNSON ‘An instant classic’ MARINA HYDE ‘At last a politician who can write’ SEBASTIAN FAULKS * A BOOK OF THE YEAR FOR THE FT, GUARDIAN, SUNDAY TIMES, TELEGRAPH, TIMES, OBSERVER, i NEWSPAPER, NEW STATESMAN, PROSPECT, CHURCH TIMES AND SCOTSMAN * © 2023 Rory Stewart (P)2023 Penguin Audio
