I'll Go to Bed at NoonChatto & Windus, 2004 - 437 Seiten By way of an odyssey through the pubs, parks and drying-out clinics of suburban North London, Gerard Woodward's second novel I'll Go To Bed At Noon charts in detail the continuing history of a troubled family (first encountered in his first novel, August) as it lurches from farce to tragedy and from one end of the 1970's to the other, and at the same time presents an unflinching portrait of British society in the unstable years leading up to the Thatcher revolution. |
