Synopsis
A big novel about a small town...
When Barry Fairbrother dies in his early forties, the town of Pagford is left in shock.
Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war.
Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils...Pagford is not what it first seems.
And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity, and unexpected revelations?

Etat : Como nuevo. : Tras la repentina muerte de Barry Fairbrother, la pequeña ciudad de Pagford se encuentra en estado de shock. Aparentemente, Pagford es un idilio inglés con una plaza de mercado empedrada y una antigua abadía, pero detrás de esta fachada se esconde una ciudad en guerra. Ricos contra pobres, adolescentes contra padres, esposas contra maridos, profesores contra alumnos. Pagford no es lo que parece. El asiento vacío que deja Barry en el consejo municipal se convierte en el catalizador de la mayor guerra que la ciudad haya visto jamás. ¿Quién triunfará en una elección llena de pasión, duplicidad e inesperadas revelaciones? Con un humor negro, provocador y constantemente sorprendente, 'The Casual Vacancy' es la primera novela para adultos de J.K. Rowling.
