The bestselling account of the demise of European culture and values, now updated with new material
Douglas Murray is Associate Editor of the Spectator and writes frequently for a variety of other publications, including the Sunday Times, Standpoint and the Wall Street Journal. He has also given talks at both the British and European Parliaments and the White House.
By far the most compelling political book of the year was Douglas
Murray's The Strange Death of Europe ... fearless, truth-telling,
and masterfully organised ... Don't hold an opinion about this book
if you have not read it. * Evening Standard, Books of the Year 2017
*
This is a brilliant, important and profoundly depressing book. That
it is written with Douglas Murray's usual literary elegance and
waspish humour does not make it any less depressing. That Murray
will be vilified for it by the liberals who have created the
appalling mess he describes does not make it any less brilliant and
important ... Read it. * Rod Liddle, Sunday Times *
His overall thesis, that a guilt-driven and exhausted Europe is
playing fast and loose with its precious modern values by embracing
migration on such a scale, is hard to refute. * Juliet Samuel,
Telegraph *
Every so often, something is published which slices through the fog
of confusion, obfuscation and the sheer dishonesty of public debate
to illuminate one key fact about the world. Such a work is Douglas
Murray's tremendous and shattering book, The Strange Death of
Europe. * Melanie Phillips, The Times *
Breathtakingly gripping * Michael Gove, Standpoint *
A cogent summary of how, over three decades or more, elites across
western Europe turned a blind eye to the failures of integration
and the rise of Islamism ... Persuasive * The Times *
This is a vitally important book, the contents of which should be
known to everyone who can influence the course of events, at this
critical time in the history of Europe. * Sir Roger Scruton *
Douglas Murray glitters in the gloom. His pessimism about
multiculturalism is so well constructed and written it is almost
uplifting. Liberals will want to rebut him. I should warn them that
they will need to argue harder than they have ever argued before. *
Nick Cohen *
Douglas Murray's introduction to this already destructive subject
of Islamist hegemony is a distinguished attempt to clarify the
origins of a storm. I found myself continually wishing that he
wasn't making himself quite so clear. * Clive James *
Douglas Murray writes so well that when he is wrong he is dangerous
* Matthew Parris, Spectator *
Whether one agrees with him or not Murray has made a valuable
contribution to the global battle of ideas * Amir Taheri, Asharq
al-Awsat *
Masterly * Christopher Hitchens on Bosie: A Biography of Lord
Alfred Douglas *
Powerful and engaging ... Murray is at his strongest when
lampooning the neurotic guilt of Western liberal elites ...
Disagree passionately if you will, but you won't regret reading it.
* Literary Review *
A compelling, insightful and persuasively argued narrative ... a
deeply humane book that touches on individual tragedy ... It may
even prove to be the start of a conversation, and for such a
dangerously politicised and neglected subject, that would be most
welcome. The combination of fascinating subject matter and superb
writing make The Strange Death of Europe a title that stays in the
mind throughout the reading process and beyond. * Entertainment
Focus *
Powerfully argued * Roland White, Sunday Times Political Books of
the Year, 2017 *
This is the most disturbing political book I've read this year.
Based on travels through key European centres, Murray weaves a tale
of uncontrolled immigration, failed multiculturalism, systemic
self-doubt, cultural suicide and disingenuous political leadership.
Accurate, insightful and devastating, with applicable lessons for
countries on both sides of the Atlantic. * Rabbi Lord Jonathan
Sacks *
Please read Douglas Murray's The Strange Death of Europe *
