Discover the truth behind the headlines with this collection of Private Eye's popular reportage column Scene & Heard, including previously unseen sketches and reports. David Ziggy Greene travels the country asking questions and sketching scenes of modern life. His detailed, funny, astute works of graphic reportage - at protests and festivals, cycle rides, farms and prisons - reveal the human cost of policy and the profound local impact of legislation. This new collection of columns also contains much brand new material - including a series of insightful sketches of human hubs such as A&E, the tube and the courts. With a foreword by Mark Thomas.
'Deceptively intelligent and exceptionally moreish.' Charlie Brooker | `With his beautiful illustrations and incisive words, Greene is one of the most important cartoonists working today.' David Squires, Guardian cartoonist | `For years in the pages of Private Eye `Scene & Heard' has combined to telling effect a journalist's news sense and ear for a quote with an artist's eye for the human condition, once a fortnight, for less than the price of a bog-standard pint in a characterless booze-barn.' Barney Farmer | `Yeah. What he said.' Lee Healey. Viz, The Drunken Bakers | `Unusually for modern journalism, Scene & Heard leaves the reader with more questions than fourth-hand conjecture masquerading as insight. As brutally honest as one might hope. Brilliant.' Rufus Hound | `Fantastic.' Chris Riddell
