PROPAGANDA TEXTBOOK: Starring George Orwell, Paddy McGuinness, Bert Kelly and Robert Haupt

"Words fail me! It took me ages to find the combination of letters on the keyboard to even start to describe how Benjamin Marks has deconstructed the writing style of three of the great columnists in the history of the newspaper I subsequently edited. I came to his book very familiar with the work of all three, and personally familiar with two of them. By unpacking their style in such a unique and compelling way, Marks has forever changed how I now read all three of them - Paddy, Kelly and Haupt - as writers, as propagandists and as people. He's got me questioning my own writing style."Michael Stutchbury"This book is too theoretical, too practical and too funny. As comedy writing, it will appeal to everyone. As a Fairfax newspapers' highlight-reel and a fresh look at George Orwell on propaganda, it will appeal to everyone else."Sam Kennard"If Benjamin had been writing comedy for me since 2009, rather than just since 2019, then, according to our advanced marketing metrics, I'd be Prime Minister by now."Tom Waterhouse
