MIDDLE ENGLAND / COE, JONATHAN

Título : MIDDLE ENGLAND Tipo de documento: texto impreso Autores: COE, JONATHAN Editorial: LONDON : VIKING Fecha de publicación: 2018 Número de páginas: 423 ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-0-241-98368-3 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: FICTION Resumen: Beginning eight years ago on the outskirts of Birmingham, where car factories have been replaced by Poundland, and London, where frenzied riots give way to Olympic fever, Middle England follows a brilliantly vivid cast of characters through a time of immense change. There are newlyweds Ian and Sophie, who disagree about the future of the country and, possibly, the future of their relationship; Doug, the political commentator who writes impassioned columns about austerity from his Chelsea townhouse, and his radical teenage daughter who will stop at nothing in her quest for social justice; Benjamin Trotter, who embarks on an apparently doomed new career in middle age, and his father Colin, whose last wish is to vote in the European referendum. And within all these lives is the story of modern England: a story of nostalgia and delusion; of bewilderment and barely-suppressed rage.
