Book Fifty One 2014:
Selfish, Whining Monkeys by Rod Liddle
I’ll be honest here – I knew I probably wasn’t going to agree with everything Rod Liddle has to say in this book but I’m a huge believer in not always reading inside ever decreasing circles and so…
The thing that did astonish me was how much of what he said I was nodding my head to (a fair amount). It’s a ranty, neither left nor right series of sort-of connected chapters about how people today have pissed away everything previous generations worked for because of things like easy credit, easy divorce and us becoming more and more self-obsessed.
I did end up skimming a bit but again I say I did agree with some of what was going on here so it was an experiment well worth doing.
If you like this, maybe you’ll like the rest…
