From Marie Curie to Greta Thunberg, Amazin' Raisins to Shiitake mushrooms, Winston Churchill to Keir Starmer, Poets Laureate to Jack & Jill and from constipation to Covid-19, the author takes a nostalgic look at the past and a quizzical look at the paradoxes, politics and pandemic of the present employing a skilful mix of prose, puns, poems, parodies and parables woven together with timeless humour. There is a laugh, a smile, a groan or a nod of agreement on every page - that's the plan.
