Reviews

So boldly different it creates a mini-genre all of its own . . . This is a pleasant surprise: a genuinely unusual, bold and important book. You can't say that of many political memoirs -- Andrew Marr * The New Statesman *
Fascinating and crisply written . . . That May has more seriousness and commitment than the average politician . . . means she has a better chance to fix some of those burning injustices this book shows she is clearly still worried about -- Isabel Hardman * i Newspaper *
The book will reinforce the view that May was a politician of conviction and compassion. -- Robert Shrimsley * Financial Times *
