Jesse Armstrong is the co-creator and writer of the BAFTA Award-winning Peep Show, as well as Fresh Meat, Bad Sugar, Babylon and, with Chris Morris, Four Lions. He was also co-writer of The Thick of It and the Oscar-nominated In the Loop, and wrote the Entire History of You for Charlie Brooker’s Black Mirror. Love, Sex and Other Foreign Policy Goals is his first novel.

"Within the first few sentences, Love, Sex & Other Foreign Policy Goals had me hooked...combines the best of sitcom-style drama with just the right amount of gravity... Armstrong's debut manages to be clever and fun while also retaining grittiness. I hope this is the first of many." -- Rachael Pells Independent "Armstrong at his comic best ... Armstrong's hilarious portrayal of flawed humanity wins it for me." -- Lucy Frith, 4 stars Stylist "Original, unabashed and irresistibly funny." -- Zoe Williams Guardian "Well-written and full of good gags." -- Sebastian Shakespeare Tatler "A truly comic novel."
