Opis: Nothing But The Truth: The Memoir of an Unlikely Lawyer - Secret Barrister

The Sunday Times bestsellerFull of hilarious and shocking stories, the Secret Barrister`s memoir Nothing But The Truth tracks their transformation from hang `em and flog `em austerity-supporter to celebrated, campaigning, bestselling author.`Masterful, compassionate and hilarious` - Adam RutherfordIn a diary that takes us behind the scenes of their middling ambition, Nothing But The Truth charts an outsider`s progress down the winding path towards practising at the Bar. By way of the painfully archaic traditions of the Inns of Court, where every meal mandates a glass of port and a toast to the monarch, and the Hunger Games-style contest for pupillage - which most don`t survive - here is the brilliant reality of being a frustrated junior barrister.With a keen eye for the absurd and an obsessive fondness for Twitter, SB reveals the uncomfortable truths and darkest secrets about life in our criminal courts.`Words tumble out with extraordinary fluency . . . entertaining and instructive` - The Times`Written with compassion, wit and intelligence` - TLS`Excellent . . . at once a vicious polemic, a helpful primer and a cringe-inducing account of one barrister`s travails` - The Telegraph
