Publisher's summary

In Woke, Titania McGrath demonstrates how everybody can play their part in the pursuit of social justice. As a millennial icon on the forefront of online activism, Titania is uniquely placed to guide her listeners through the often bewildering array of terminology and concepts that constitute 21st-century 'wokeness'. These new ideas often leave the general public bemused, particularly if they don't read the Guardian.

Being woke is actually much easier than people think. As Titania demonstrates, anyone can be an activist. By simply adding a rainbow flag to your Facebook profile, or calling out an elderly person who doesn't understand what 'nonbinary' means, you can change the world for the better. Indeed, social media has now made it possible to show how virtuous you are without having to do anything at all.

Timely and indispensable, Titania's step-by-step guide will help you to become the woke person you need to be in an increasingly progressive world. In a non-patronising manner, Titania will explain why you are wrong about everything and how to become more like her.

An Absolute Masterpiece of Wokeness

Whatever Alice Marshall was paid for reading this masterpiece will never be enough. “Titania” (Doyle) is a true genius and just about every line in this book is shockingly hilarious, but Marshall’s reading transformed it into something ... otherworldly. Titania’s slam poetry is beyond hilarious in print ... but tumbling off Marshall’s tongue it is ... well ... there are no words to express it. You just have to listen, then once you do you will instantly understand why I came up short of enough appropriate adjectives to actually do Alice’s work justice.

I normally listen to audiobooks while out walking. As I was loathe to turn this particular audiobook off I arrived home exhausted and with sore feet after extending my walks well beyond my usual.

And — in case you’re wondering — even here in Japan Titania McGrath is f*cking hilarious.

Real wokeness too ridiculous to satirize

The best parts were references to real-life incidents. A collection of them would be better.

Hilarious!

This book is fantastic. It may be one of the best satirical books I have read in years. A must read for anyone who wants to be truly Woke

Hilarious!

Not only is Titania McGrath a hilarious writer but the audio performance made it all the better. In fact listening to it is more enjoyable than reading it.

hilarious statement of our current time.

as I used the audiobook it was an easy listen and funny. Woke gently nudges your senses to the extreme thought patterns of our modern society today.

Entertainment

I've never been so entertained through an audiobook until now. the performance was absolutely spectacular. The book itself is a giant crackpot of humor.. If you're unfamiliar with "who" Titania McGrath is then you may not understand so I urge people to look up Titania and her creator and under who and what Titania represents before listening. Other than that, I loved this book and I don't agree with anything said in it lol.

Hilarious!

Great parody! I think many SJWs out there may not realize it's a parody.
