Great writers, artists, musicians and thinkers in British life say
what Europe means to them: an outpouring of love and sadness. With
pieces from Frank Cottrell Boyce, Melvyn Bragg, Margaret Drabble,
Alan Hollinghurst, Will Hutton, Holly Johnson, Penelope Lively,
Jonathan Meades, Deborah Moggach, Alan Moore, Jackie Morris, Cathy
Rentzenbrink, Chris Riddle, Tony Robinson, Pete Townshend, Kate
Williams, Michael Wood and many more... As Britain pulls away from
Europe great British writers come together to give voice to their
innermost feelings. Contributing essays that contain some of their
finest writings and perspectives very different to the ones given
in news outlets. The creative community here has its say on Brexit.
Novelists, artists, comedians, historians, biographers, nature
writers, film writers, travel writers, people young and old and
from an extraordinary range of backgrounds. Most are famous perhaps
because they have won the Booker or other literary prizes, written
bestsellers, changed the face of popular culture or sold millions
of records. Others are not yet household names but write with depth
of insight and feeling. There is some extraordinary writing in this
book. Some of these pieces are expressions of love of particular
places in Europe. Some are true stories, some nostalgic, many
hopeful. There are hilarious pieces. There are cries of pain and
regret. Some pieces are quietly devastating. All are passionate.
They show how Europe has helped us to expand our emotional,
intellectual and artistic bandwidth, and hopefully will continue to
do just that. Contributors include: Mary Beard, Jeffrey Boakye,
Melvyn Bragg, Simon Callow, B. Catling, Shami Chakrabarti, Chris
Cleave, Frank Cottrell Boyce, William Dalrymple, Lindsey Davis,
Margaret Drabble, Tracey Emin, Michel Faber, Sebastian Faulks, Neil
Gaiman, Evelyn Glennie, Alan Hollinghurst, Will Hutton, Holly
Johnson, Ruth Jones, A.L. Kennedy, Hermione Lee, Prue Leith, Roger
Lewis, Penelope Lively, Richard Mabey, Jonathan Meades, Andrew
Miller, Deborah Moggach, Alan Moore, Paul Morley, Jackie Morris,
Charles Nicholl, Irenosen Okojie, Onjali Q. Rauf, Chris Riddell,
Tony Robinson, J.K. Rowling, Rhik Samadder, Isy Suttie, Sandi
Toksvig, Pete Townshend, Kate Williams and Michael Wood.
