God, Man and Mrs. Thatcher by Jonathan Raban
This is the first in a series of provocative pamphlets in the tradition which was at its peak in the 18th century and was last upheld by Wyndham Lewis' "Blast". Writers are invited to address a contemporary issue about which they feel strongly and present a short non-party-political piece which should enrage and stir up debate. Here, Jonathan Raban gives a critical analysis of Mrs Thatcher's address to the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. The "Chatto Counterblast" pamphlets are designed to become collector's items. Each will be numbered and bear the author's signature on the inside flap.Jonathan Raban, the author of Waxwings and Passage to Juneau, was born in England and has lived in Seattle since 1990. The National Book Critics Circle Prize, the Royal Society of Literature's Heinemann Award, the PEN/West Creative Nonfiction Award, the Pacific Northwest Bookseller Association's Award, and the Governor's Award of the State of Washington are among his accolades.
