Anyone else read this?

It’s by Simon Edge and is a satire on something very familiar…

The premise is that a small campaigning charity achieves all its goals so rather than wind the charity up and make all the staff redundant it takes on a new cause, promoting belief in a flat earth.

I am about a quarter through, so far very funny and sharp and I am enjoying it very much as I think many people on here would.

The Kindle edition is out and is not expensive.

Amazon link though I think you can order from the publisher too.

Enjoy it!

The more I think about the more insightful I think it is. The stuff about how people were persuaded to use the TERG slur before they even knew what it meant is rather interesting.

Ordered it! Sounds like an interesting read.

I read it at the weekend, it's a good fun read. A few years ago i would have thought it totally implausible but not now!

I have this on order. Looking forward to reading it.

Yes, it is much needed light relief. While also being quite thought-provoking about how this can have happened.

That sounds fun. Hopefully a bit of light relief Grin

It is a small publisher so I will order the book from them.
