What is The Rotters’ Club (Book #1) about?

Birmingham, England, c. 1973: industrial strikes, bad pop music, corrosive class warfare, adolescent angst, IRA bombings. Four friends: a class clown who stoops very low for a laugh; a confused artist enthralled by guitar rock; an earnest radical with socialist leanings; & a quiet dreamer obsessed with poetry, God, & the prettiest girl in school. As the world appears to self-destruct around them, they hold together to navigate the choppy waters of a decidedly ambiguous decade.°°° The bestselling comic novel, now a Penguin EssentialUnforgettably funny & painfully honest, Jonathan Coe's tale of Benjamin Trotter & his friends' coming of age during the 1970s is a heartfelt celebration of the joys & agonies of growing up.Featuring, among other things, IRA bombs, prog rock, punk rock, bad poetry, first love, love on the side, prefects, detention, a few bottles of Blue Nun, lots of brown wallpaper, industrial strife, & divine intervention in the form of a pair of swimming trunks.Set against the backdrop of the decade's class struggles, tragic & riotous by turns, packed with thwarted romance & furtive sex, The Rotters’ Club is for anyone who ever experienced adolescence the hard way.°°° Jo
