Monday Morning Blues (2000) is the second book by the British conservative journalist Peter Hitchens. It is a collection of articles reprinted from the Daily Express, which were originally published during the mid to late 1990s. Topics range from arguments for the death penalty and laments for the decline of the BBC among other developments of which Hitchens disapproves. The cover depicts a caricature of Tony Blair stating "I can't understand why these young people don't respect the past".

Famous quotes containing the words monday, morning and/or blues:
“My consciousness-raising group is still going on. Every Monday night it meets, somewhere in Greenwich Village, and it drinks a lot of red wine and eats a lot of cheese. A friend of mine who is in it tells me that at the last meeting, each of the women took her turn to explain, in considerable detail, what she was planning to stuff her Thanksgiving turkey with. I no longer go to the group.”
—Nora Ephron (b. 1941)
“In that November off Tehuantepec,
The slopping of the sea grew still one night
And in the morning summer hued the deck
And made one think of rosy chocolate
And gilt umbrellas.”
—Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
“It is from the blues that all that may be called American music derives its most distinctive character.”
—James Weldon Johnson (1871–1938)
