THE CLOSED CIRCLE PB – JONATHAN COE

Discover bestselling author Jonathan Coe s hilarious sequel to The Rotters Club! It s the end of the century and Benjamin Trotter and friends are all grown up. Life is a ceaseless whirl of jobs, marriages, kids – and self-inflicted angst. Despite the shiny optimism of Blair s Britain, youthful hopes and dreams feel betrayed. Is the Government (and by extension Benjamin s MP brother Paul) to blame? Or are the rotters themselves – only passingly faithful to their dreams – really at fault? The Closed Circle depicts a group of former school friends as older, wiser and disillusioned in Blair s Britain at the turn of the millennium, proving that the present can never truly be disentangled from the past. THE STORY CONTINUES IN MIDDLE ENGLAND. __________ Terrific. An incisive portrait of Britain at the turn of the century Spectator Coe s finest achievement since What a Carve up!
