Stop The World I Want To Get Off – Unpublished Letters To The Daily Telegraph By Ian Hollingshead

Readers of the Telegraph Letters Page will be fondly aware of the eclectic combination of learned wisdom, wistful nostalgia and robust good sense that characterise its correspondence. In a year (2016) in which even the most seasoned commentators hav struggled to keep pace with the news cycle, letter writers to The Daily Telegraph have once again provided their own refreshing take on events – whether comparing freedom of movement in the EU to a traffic jam in Waitrose car park or renouncing the Archers in favour of the more gripping Westminster soap opera. From politics to Poldark, Rhodes to Rooney, Trump to  Top Gear, Cameron to Corbyn, no one escapes their hilariously whimsical musings. Baffled, furious, defiant, mischievous, the readers inveigh and speculate on every subject under the sun, proving, once again, that the Telegraph letter writers have an astute sense of what really matters Hardcover.
