Quatrième de couverture
'One of the best accounts of clever English schoolboyhood I've read'
Times Literary Supplement
Christopher and Toni found in each other the perfect companion for that universal adolescent pastime: smirking at the world as you find it. In between training as flaneurs and the grind of school they cast a cynical eye over their various dislikes: parents with their lives of spotless emptiness, Third Division (North) football teams, God, commuters and girls, and the inhabitants of Metroland, the strip of suburban dormitory Christopher calls home.
Longing for real life to begin, we follow Christopher to Paris in time for les evenements of 1968, only for him to miss it all in a haze of sex, French theatre and first love, leading, to Toni's disappointment, back to Metroland.
‘Consummately elegant’
Sunday Times
'If all works of fiction were as thoughtful, as subtle, as well constructed, and as funny as Metroland there would be no more talk of the death of the novel'
New Statesman
