Description
Derryn Hinch made headlines in 2016 when he went from media personality to Victorian Senator at the head of a new political party and made a lasting impact on the political landscape. This is an unflinchingly honest account of his last two years as a senator, before he lost his seat in the 2019 election. Hinch's diary exposes Canberra's inner workings and details on his professional successes and failures with trademark frankness.
