Synopsis

THE NEW NOVEL FROM THE BOLLINGER SHORTLISTED AUTHOR OF ENGLAND'S LANE.

'Connolly unfolds a rich and compelling drama of life that is anything but everyday' Daily Mail

George is a fashion mad Beatles fan, selfish and cruel. Why his girlfriend Dorothy loves him is a mystery to her and to his best friend Sammy. When George callously chucks her he cannot anticipate that his life, post 1964, will never be the same. And forty-four years later, when George is sixty-four, rich and successful, his past will catch up with him and his family.

Media Reviews
Connolly remorselessly points up social pretensions with the eye of Dostoevsky . . . this satire on human behaviour is timeless * Independent *
A writer of considerable power and subtlety -- Guardian
Connolly creates a sense of intimacy and collusion with his reader that is rare in contemporary fiction * Financial Times *
He remains essentially a comic novelist, but one whose work has its dark, even sinister side . . . There is no other novelist today who writes quite like Connolly * Scotsman *
