Review: March of the Lemmings: Brexit in Print and Performance 2016–2019

March of the Lemmings: Brexit in Print and Performance 2016–2019 March of the Lemmings: Brexit in Print and Performance 2016–2019 by Stewart Lee
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Hilarious in parts but the format of the book which lists all his "Brexit" columns from the Observer over the past 3 years becomes a bit of a drudge - as, well, the last 3 years have been in general.

The transcript of his "Content Provider" performance is a welcome respite at the end, although it's humour is slightly stunted on page compared to on screen/in performance.

The footnotes are the best part, as ever in Lee's books, detailing the level of craft in his writing and performance.
