<p><b>From the fierce and funny Clive James, this is Britain in the twenty-first century – from wheelie bins to plastic surgery, and from <i>Britain's Got Talent</i> to contemporary art.</b><br><br>Between 2007 and 2009, Clive James wrote and presented <i>A Point of View</i> for BBC Radio 4, providing hilarious and profound thoughts on the matters of the moment.
In this volume are presented his original pieces – sixty in total – alongside previously unpublished postscripts.<br><br>Read along with Clive as he delves deep into television, Elizabeth Hurley, Harry Potter, the Olympic Games, Snoop Dogg and cane toads – and plenty more besides.<br><br><b>'Irreverent and funny, clever without being cynical and not afraid to flex his wits on anything and everything' – <i>Daily Telegraph</i><br><br>Clive James</b> (1939–2019) was a broadcaster, critic, poet, memoirist and novelist.
His much-loved, influential and hilarious television criticism is available both in individual volumes and collected in <i>Clive James On Television</i>. His encyclopaedic study of culture and politics in the twentieth century, <i>Cultural Amnesia</i>, remains perhaps the definitive embodiment of his wide-ranging talents as a critic.
<br><br><b>Praise for Clive James:<br><br>'The perfect critic' – A.O. Scott, <i>New York Times</i><br><br>'There can't be many writers of my generation who haven't been heavily influenced by Clive James' – Charlie Brooker <br><br>'A wonderfully witty and intelligent writer' – Verity Lambert </b></p>
