AWW23: Discomforting the Comfortable - Marina Hyde

Chair: Lenore Taylor


According to Armando Iannucci: “An infinite number of
gag-writers, working all day in a gag factory, couldn’t come up
with any of the perfectly-formed one-liners that populate Marina
Hyde’s hilarious writing… But behind the wit lurks real anger,
argument, exasperation and intelligence. Her writing is more than
a gentle poke in the ribs: it’s a well-wrought and deftly aimed
smash in the teeth." Journalist Marina Hyde joins Lenore Taylor
to talk about her new book and take us on a wild ride, from David
Cameron to Liz Truss, the dangerous idiocy of the Trump
presidency and never-ending royal capers.
