ESSEX. A county both famous and infamous: the stuff of tabloid headlines and reality TV, consumer culture and right-wing politicianes. England's dark id.
But beyond the headlines, there is another Essex - a place of marshy islands and utopian dreams, of artists and radicals, heroes and villains. It's where the Romans began their conquest of Britain, where the Empire Windrush landed and where the supposed heartland of Thatcher and Brexit is said to lie. Essex is the place where England is most itself - and where it goes, the rest of us follow.
The Invention of Essex is the story of England's most notorious county - and of the nation's uncertain future.
