Decidedly absurd, and always entertaining, revel in the very best letters to The Times.

From tinned prime ministers to hiccup remedies, this collection lets you in on more than a few inside jokes from one of Britain’s longest-running correspondences.

While the other pages of the newspaper chronicle the pressing issues of the day, the Letters page often muses on the things that really matter. Sir: The year in letters is a selection of the best of these letters, an elegant and erudite display of Times readers at their most whimsical and droll.

The perfect gift for anyone with a shrewd sense of humour, this book features:

• An absurdly entertaining round up of the year’s happenings

• More than 400 letters featured in The Times, curated by Letters editor Andrew Riley

• Original cartoons by Royston Robertson
