Event information
From this award-winning author, comedian and broadcaster: an unputdownable novel about love, secrets, wartime espionage – and moral philosophy.
Oxford, 1938. Ida and Medora are two brilliant young philosophers at the heart of a group who gather to dance, drink and debate theories of right and wrong. But as the world spins towards war, theoretical questions of life and death become all too real. Seductive, witty and page-turning, 'Intelligence' is the unputdownable new novel from one of the UK’s best-loved writers and comedians.
Robert Newman, made his name in the 1990s as a writer and performer of The Mary Whitehouse Experience and Newman & Baddiel. ‘Intelligence’ is his seventh book. He has written and starred in many TV and radio shows, including ‘Robert Newman’s Total Eclipse of Descartes’, ‘History of Oil’ and ‘No Planet B’ and has performed sold-out stand-up shows all over the world.
