Beginning eight years ago on the outskirts of Birmingham, where car factories are 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. And within all these lives is the story of modern England: a story of nostalgia and delusion; of bewilderment and barely-suppressed rage. The novel for our strange new times.
Jonathan Coe was born a few miles from Bournville in 1961. The author of political satires such as Bournville, What a Carve Up! and Number 11, and family sagas such as The Rotters' Club and The Rain Before It Falls, his novels have won prizes at home and abroad, including Costa Novel of the Year and the Prix du Livre Européen (both for Middle England).
