Description

Maurice Saatchi is dead. He is standing in front of the Gates of Heaven. Arrival halls worse than Heathrow. Queues. Overcrowding. A tidal wave of Paradise seekers. ID scans. Voice and facial recognition. X-ray examinations. Background checks. It all seems like a bad dream. His tests expose abnormalities. He is charged with multiple breaches of immigration law and detained pending a full jury trial. The verdict will reveal the biggest secret of all time: why some people go to Heaven and others to Hell. Do Not Resuscitate is a bold statement. Maurice Saatchi, a towering figure in the worlds of business and politics, frames his unsparing self-portrait with the conceit of a celestial trial in which his application to pass through the Gates of Heaven is heard before a jury featuring luminaries like Marilyn Monroe, Pablo Picasso, Chairman Mao, and Margaret Thatcher.

In seeking admission to Heaven, Saatchi offers a defence like no other. . "I relished every page."— Elton John"Surreal and insightful."— John Major"A significant work.

Beautiful and profound."—The Dean of Westminster"An act of enduring and boundless love."— Michael Dobbs"A Jeu d'Esprit.

Fascinating. Deeply moving!"— David Hare
