'These days, watching television is like sitting in the back of
Travis Bickle's taxicab, staring through the window at a world of
relentless, churning shod ... '
Cruel, acerbic, impassioned, gleeful, frequently outrageous and
always hilarious, Charlie Brooker's Screen Burn collects the
best of the much-loved Guardian Guide columns into one
easy-to-read-on-the-toilet package.
Sit back and roar as Brooker rips mercilessly into Simon Cowell,
Big Brother, Trinny and Susannah, Casualty, Davina
McCall, Michael Parkinson ... and almost everything elso on television.
This book will make practically anyone laugh out loud.
