DESCRIPTION

Slovenliness as a Way of Life
Theodore Dalrymple delivers a brilliantly acerbic diagnosis of Britain's cultural decay. With his signature dry wit, he exposes how everyday slovenliness-from paved gardens to civic indifference-signals a nation surrendering its spirit. Essential for readers of Douglas Murray, this sharp critique is perfectly timed to captivate the public.
How did Britain become a nation seemingly addicted to indifference? In this drily witty book, Theodore Dalrymple finds a culture inclined to performative behaviour rather than results through a series of sharp and entertaining vignettes. From paved-over front gardens that become car parks to the decline of civic pride. As a humorous examination of Britain's peculiar ailment it is also a hopeful first step towards restoration.
