In a surreal and unprecedented year in which even the most seasoned commentators have struggled to keep pace with the news cycle, letter writers to
The Daily Telegraph
have once again provided their refreshing and witty take on events.
Now in its thirteenth year, this
new edition of the best-selling series
is a review of the year made up of the wry and astute observations of the unpublished
Telegraph
letter writers.
Readers of the
Letters Page will be fondly aware of the eclectic combination of
learned wisdom
, wistful
nostalgia
and robust
good sense of humour
that characterise its correspondence – whether it’s suggesting the sci-fi Vulcan salute as an alternative to the now-discouraged handshake, or a parable of political dysfunction drawn from shopping in Ikea.
From
Brexit
to
Covid
,
Trump
Biden
, lockdown to vaccination, parish council Jackie Weaver to Texas Cat lawyer Rod Ponton, no one escapes their
hilariously whimsical
and sometimes risqué musings. With an agenda as enticing as ever, the thirteenth book in the bestselling Unpublished Letters series will prove, once again, that the
Telegraph’s
readers still have a
shrewd sense of what really matters.
