Dead Sheep, Paperback / softback Book

Dead Sheep Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

It is 1989 and a seemingly invincible Prime Minister has sacked Geoffrey Howe, her Foreign Secretary.

She apparently had nothing to fear from him: his speaking skills had, famously, been compared to those of a dead sheep.

But, a year later, inspired by his wife Elspeth - whose relationship with Thatcher was notoriously frosty - Howe overcame his limitations to destroy Mrs Thatcher with one of the great political speeches.

Dead Sheep is a drama tinged with tragedy and comedy.

Its themes - loyalty, love, political morality and Britishness - are still uncannily relevant today. .
