À propos de ce contenu audio

This will be the most refreshing, entertaining history of England you'll have ever read.

Certainly, the funniest.

Because David Mitchell will explain how it is not all names, dates or ungraspable historical headwinds, but instead show how it's really just a bunch of random stuff that happened with a few lucky bastards ending up on top. Some of these bastards were quite strange, but they were in charge, so we quite literally lived, and often still live, by their rules.

It's a great story. And it's our story. If you want to know who we are in modern Britain, you need to read this book.

    Commentaires

    Unruly is part Horrible Histories part jolly romp guided by Alan Bennett. Perhaps this is how history should be done: not by patient scholars, but by free-swearing actor-comedians cramming more ideas and jokes into their pages than many professionals have committed to print in their careers.
    Full of jokes and canny insights, 100 per cent sparkier and more revernt than your school textbooks
    An enjoyable, rollicking read, definitely not a conventional history book
    I don’t think anyone other than David Mitchell could have written this book. It’s clever, funny and makes you think quite differently about history we thought we knew
    By turns fascinating and funny - there is a jewel of an insight or a refreshing blast of clarifying wit on every page. David brings a delightfully contrary and hilariously cantankerous eye to the history of the English Monarchy. Informative, illuminating and very very funny
    Mitchell clearly knows his history, with a book that owes as much to Monty Python as it does to Simon Schama
    A Peep Show history of England
    Clever, amusing, gloriously bizarre and razor sharp. Mitchell - a funny man and a skilled historian - tells stories that are interesting and fun. His rants alone are worth the price of the book. And amid all the jokes and delightful nonsense, Mitchell sneaks in a serious message about English identity. Here is Horrible Histories for grownups - stripped of their finery, devoid of reverence, UNRULY's monarchs emerge as mortals with ordinary flaws. I learnt a lot and laughed a lot, and people who have never before picked up a history book will read and enjoy this one. That's an accomplishment
    Chatty, irreverent and liberally sprinkled with gags and opinions. Horrible Histories with added swearing.
    I can’t recommend this book enough. Very funny and interesting, it is above all a proper work of history

    incredible book that brings history alive by making it fun and no holding punchs with language or views of past characters of history

    Fantastic book, very informative but narrated with humor and irony. Totally recommend even if you have no connection to Great Britain whatsoever.

    Amazing!

    David Mitchell est un narrateur de premier ordre, il pourrait
    faire du sujet le plus chiant un récit épique.

    Once I got my head around trying not to remember dates or names like GCSE History, I really enjoyed this book.

    David Mitchell explains this history of rulers in an enjoyable and new way.

    Hooked and will definitely listen to it again and again.

    The passion.
