Yes We Have No
by Nik Cohn
Forget about cricket, tea with the vicar and the changing of the guard (and the much-hyped up Britannia as well), and encounter a hidden nation--the many millions who've fallen out of the mainstream, or chosen to jump. Nick Cohn's kaleidoscopic England is made up of techno-freaks and soccer obsessives, faith healers and fetishists, graffiti artists, Odinists, Rastas, Elvis impersonators, even the Antichrist.

After Diana
by
In "After Diana", leading cultural critics dissect the enormous welter of words and images to determine what can be made of the extraordinary response to the princess's death. Did Tony Blair's public emoting herald a new kind of politics? What did the deep anguish of so many who never knew Diana in person reveal about the English character? How did the intertwining of the ideas of celebrity and victim, physical beauty and moral worth affect people's responses and what is the significance of this event for the future oft he royal family?...For those perplexed by the events surrounding Diana's death, this book seeks to provide some answers. Underpinned by the idea that all aspects of the affair are open to investigation, that nothing especially royalty--is sacred, it brings together a group of distinguished writers whose primary interest is to analyse the death rather than lament it....Contributors include: Sarah Benton, Robin Blackburn, Beverly Brown, Richard Coles, Ford Higson, Christopher Hitchens, Sara Maitland, Mandy Merck, Adam Philips, Naomi Segal, Elizabeth Wilson.
