Description
The Tories: A Tragedy by Henry Morris is a bold new work of political satire that presents fourteen years of Conservative rule in the form of a Jacobean tragedy. The book takes in five prime ministers and is replete with Machiavellian manoeuvrings, hilarious mechanicals, and poignant verse. Published in the shadow of a significant election, this book offers an alternative history of a disastrous reign, appealing to those who love Shakespeare, comedy, and satire. It is an exhilarating and original work that will appeal to readers looking for a humorous take on the Tory party.
