Synopsis

In The Time of Bodley is a book that modern progressives will love to hate.‎ It is a book from the 1970s which contains and depicts, racism, sexism, homophobia and ‎working class grit. It is a book that reflects a time long gone where inequality was the norm, ‎where people used the launderette and when people still knocked on doors, to greet, to pay ‎and to play.‎ Bodley is a spectre from the past but one, despite all its foul language and cigarette smoke, ‎that reminds us that at the heart of all degradation there is still always love.‎

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Peter John Fyles was born in Burnley, Lancashire, in 1963. He left school at sixteen and worked ‎various menial jobs. Several years later, he returned to education and went on to acquire three ‎university degrees. Then he travelled around the world: he picked up tulips in Holland, sexed ‎chickens in Israel, drove across America and picked up dirty overalls in Australia. When he ‎returned to Europe, he bought a two-acre plot of land in Ireland and tilled the soil for four years. ‎After he had met his Swedish girl in Athens in 1986, he went to live in Sweden, where he became ‎the CEO of the largest free school group in the country. He has three children; Alice, John and ‎Billy, and this book is his story of growing up in the north of England in the 1970s.‎
