The Strange Death of Europe: Immigration, Identity, Islam Review This is a brilliant, important and profoundly depressing book. That it is written with Douglas Murray's usual literary elegance and waspish humour does not make it any less depressing. That Murray will be vilified for it by the liberals who have created the appalling mess he describes does not make it any less brilliant and important . Read it. (Rod Liddle, Sunday Times)His overall thesis, that a guilt-driven and exhausted Europe is playing fast and loose with its precious modern values by embracing migration on such a scale, is hard to refute. (Juliet Samuel, Telegraph)Every so often, something is published which slices through the fog of confusion, obfuscation and the sheer dishonesty of public debate to illuminate one key fact about the world. Such a work is Douglas Murray's tremendous and shattering book, The Strange Death of Europe. (Melanie Phillips, The Times)Breathtakingly gripping (Michael Gove, Standpoint)A cogent summary of how, over three decades or more, elites across western Europe turned a blind eye to the failures of integration and the rise of Islamism . Persuasive (The Times)This is a vitally important book, the contents of which should be known to everyone who can influence the course of events, at this critical time in the history of Europe. (Sir Roger Scruton)Douglas Murray glitters in the gloom. His pessimism about multiculturalism is so well constructed and written it is almost uplifting. Liberals will want to rebut him. I should warn them that they will need to argue harder than they have ever argued before. (Nick Cohen)Douglas Murray's introduction to this already destructive subject of Islamist hegemony is a distinguished attempt to clarify the origins of a storm. I found myself continually wishing that he wasn't making himself quite so clear. (Clive James)Douglas Murray writes so well that when he is wrong he is dangerous (Matthew Parris, Spectator)Whether one agrees with him or not Murray has made a valuable contribution to the global battle of ideas (Amir Taheri, Asharq al-Awsat) 				    	 					 Book Description A controversial and devastatingly honest depiction of the demise of Europe 				    	 					              See all Product description
