Can Tony Blair Save the World of Books
At the beginning of A Journey, Tony Blair boasts that he has "the soul of a rebel".

[单项选择]For Tony Blair, the outside world is a place of moral certainty. There are good guys and bad guys, and what needs to be done is pretty clear. Home, by contrast, is a messy sort of place, where the prime minister’s job is not to uphold eternal values but to force through some unpopular changes that may make the country work a bit better.
