A very brilliant book, a superb political memoir. Reads almost like a thriller - sadly, we know how the story ends for Greece & democracy. But hopefully Varoufakis's searing exposé of the inner workings of the EU deep state will inspire Europeans to demand a better political settlement for the continent.

A very enjoyable, light and quick read. I'd be inclined to give it 4 stars, but am deducting one as this book is so short it can hardly be termed a novella, let alone a novel - it will take 2 hours maximum to read. The author was an early member of Margaret Thatcher's Privatisation think tank, and the novel can be viewed as a charming political parable. Originally published 20 years ago when the benefits of privatisation could possibly be taken on trust, now the book's conclusions are pure fantasy - nevertheless, this does not detract from the overall charm of the story, as the author pays great attention to characterisation and construction. A lot is very ingeniously and economically packed in to its brief pages. Vastly superior as libertarian agit-prop to the likes of Ayn Rand. London is full of these privatised ex-council public toilets. In my experience, most of them are now cocktail bars or art galleries, with a few popping up occasionally as desirable residential conversions in upmarket interiors magazines. Not a single one is run as a privately owned public toilet.
