The Bedside Guardian 2013 (Guardian Books, December 2013)
Neil
A tremendous collection of the best writing from The Guardian throughout 2013 - and an excellent way for those who don't have daily access to this newspaper to get a taste of their journalism and lifestyle writers. From the unpalatable truth about quinoa, to coverage of Margaret Thatcher's passing, to the early coverage of Edward Snowden's revelations, to what to do with Christmas leftovers this is the perfect bedside dipping-into book. Personally, i would have liked a bit more of The Guardian's excellent arts and literature coverage, but a very satisfying collection anyway.
