Friday 11 November 2022

Crowne Plaza Hotel

We welcome the bestselling and award-winning author of Ma’am Darling and One Two Three Four, with a selection of his finest writing collected together for the first time. Mixing parody, literary criticism, profiles, satire, light verse, anagrams, and social observation, he’s latest book Haywire gathers together the finest examples of his writing across the past fifteen years. From Mary Berry’s Household Tips to Robert Macfarlane’s poetic prose, from profiles of such diverse figures as Sigmund Freud, John Stonehouse and Katie Price to parodies of Jacob Rees-Mogg and Mary Beard; from appreciations of the Marx Brothers and Les Dawson to essays on Brian Epstein and the slippery art of biography. Craig Brown has been described by the Sunday Times as ‘our greatest living

satirist’.
