Blair, a must read, not
Tony Blair's memoirs 'The Journey' to be published in September | Mail Online
Just to let you know you can place advance order for Tony's book at Amazon the only thing missing on the cover picture is a set of number across the bottom

Re: Blair, a must read, not
I hope that when the book becomes available to libraries, it will be located in the Fiction section.

I think I'd agree with your reasoning, but with a tendency to lean more to Fantasy. Lets look at the Characters & Story line, set in a strange Land that bears no resemblance to our own fair Isle , a land of contented folk ? but away with the fairies we have a Wicked Witch wanting to control & dominate & supporting an evil King ! with dubious plans for the innocents of the Land, then the Kings minions, wicked hobgoblins & trolls all fighting amongst themselves to gain superiority over the other.
J.R.R. Tolkien eat your heart out ! Yep, definitely in the realms of Fantasy I think.

Re: Blair, a must read, not
Instead of coming up with his own bs title, he could have used the one that Cardinal Newman used: "Apologia Pro Vita Sua"; which would loosely translate as "An Apology for My Life."

Re: Blair, a must read, not
tony blairs memories?
if they are in print he shoulda taken them with him to the iraq enquiery where he could have looked back at his memories and told the bloody truth instead of the cack he spouted.
hopefully there will be a sequel book with one page which will have a small list of the top 3 or 4 crimes he commited against teh british public and a final scentence delaring he was hung by his bloody neck.
i suppose both books could fall under fiction,
unless he walks past my house and i have a rope handy
