19/01/2023

Congratulations to the brilliant Owen Matthews, whose latest book Overreach has been shortlisted for the 2022 Parliamentary Book Awards in the Best Political Book by a Non-Parliamentarian category. Fellow nominees include What Just Happened?! by Marina Hyde, Ghost Signs by Stu Hennigan, and The Fall of Boris Johnson by Sebastian Payne.

Based on Owen’s incredible contacts in the Kremlin and first-hand reporting from the battle frontlines, Overreach is an authoritative, unmissable record of a conflict that shocked Europe to its core.

‘Overreach is a remarkable achievement, with Matthews’s expert eye like an all-seeing drone buzzing from one side of the conflict to the other’ – The Telegraph

‘Superb … a true page-turner’ – Andrew Roberts, BBC History

‘Matthews writes with extraordinary vividness… a master craftsman’ – Spectator

Owen Matthews is the Spectator’s Russia correspondent and a former Moscow and Istanbul Bureau Chief for Newsweek.
