The Cockroach - Ian McEwan
Great impromptu spoof of the whole Brexit deal and the individuals and forces behind it. Bit of a take-off on Franz Kafka. Basically, cockroaches take over the bodies and minds of leading political figures behind Brexit. Their goal is to create a world in chaos and disorder to promote living conditions more suitable to their continued reproduction and success - another way of looking at Brexit, Trump and Putin (amongst others) who strive to create legal, political and social conditions favourable to their own greed and desire for power
