<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>In a forensic dissection of Britain's souring landscape Gordon Burn tells the tale of Ray Cruddas, a light entertainer effecting a semi-dignified retreat from a fading career, who returns to the unnamed northern town of his youth. </b><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Extraordinary, funny, tender, poetic . . . The story that emerges is Britain's." -- <i>Times Literary Supplement</i> <p/> "The history he presents, at times wielding Orwellian eloquence, is worth the price of the book itself." -- <i>Independent</i> <p/> "A lavish recreation of the postwar landscapes . . . Written with all the eye-catching detail that gives Burn's non-fiction its allure." -- <i> Guardian </i> <p/> "No other English writer does quite what Burn does, and he does it brilliantly." -- <i>Times</i><br>
