Piers Morgan was made editor of the News of the World, the UK's biggest-selling Sunday newspaper at the record-breaking age of 28. The decade that followed was one of the most tumultuous in modern times. In a world of indiscreet dinners, private meetings and gossipy lunches, Piers Morgan found himself in the thick of it. His diaries from this remarkable period reveal astonishing and hilarious encounters with an endless list of celebrities and politicians alike: Diana, William, Charles and Camilla; Tony Blair, Cherie, Gordon Brown; Paul McCartney, George Michael and Elton John; Jeremy Clarkson, Paula Yates and Gazza to name just a few.
Entertaining, engaging and compulsive, The Insider was the most talked-about book of 2005, blowing apart every notion we have of politics, media and celebrity.
Reviews / Votes
A right, rollicking good read -- Andrew Neil * Evening Standard * A riveting read with splendid anecdotes on almost every page * The Times * This is a book of historical importance -- Peter Oborne * The Spectator * A compelling read on any level, whether you want to consider the relationship between politics and the press, royal behaviour, the red-top world - or just want a good laugh * Independent * Funny and fabulously indiscreet, this is a book that holds up a mirror to the spinning and posturing of our celebrity age ... scurrilously entertaining * Observer * One of the most uproarious and indiscreet accounts of public life in recent times -- Mary Riddell * Daily Mail * An amusing, revealing and (mostly) true look at all the news that's fit to print, and some that wasn't * The Sun * One of the best-ever books about journalism -- Lynn Barber * Observer * The best account we have so far of what life has really been like in No.10 for the past eight years... I do, on the whole, trust this amazing account. In the first place, his depiction of the three main characters - Mr Blair, Cherie Blair and Alastair Campbell - is consistent with what we already know of them. And, in the second place, it all hangs together. We see these people in moods of rage, self-pity and treachery, and in the round each of them is all too credible -- Stephen Glover * Daily Mail * An irresistible read, whether you love him or hate him, are friend or foe, or wouldn't touch the Mirror with decontaminated tweezers. And there is enough arrogant boasting, self-immolation and sweet boyish charm to convert you from one category to another and back again -- Charles Wilson * Independent *More details
