Julie Burchill Book order (chronological)

Im Jahr 2013 schrieb Julie Burchill, die »klügste Frau Englands« und von ihren Feinden »Winston Burchill« genannt, eine polemische Zeitungskolumne, in der sie einen Freund gegen politische Extremisten verteidigte. Sie wurde von einem empörten Mob verfolgt, im Parlament denunziert und durfte viele Jahre lang weder in dieser noch in einer anderen Zeitung erscheinen. »Willkommen bei den Woke-Tribunalen« ist teils Erinnerung, teils Anklage. Burchill dokumentiert, was ihr zwischen damals und heute widerfahren ist, als die Woke-Regimenter die Macht übernahmen; eine respektlose und unterhaltsame Analyse der Schlüsselelemente eines anhaltenden und beunruhigenden Phänomens.
