Funny sardonic story of the social and political changes in England between World War I and World War II. Full of strange and entertaining characters and accounts of the Spanish Civil War, the beginnings of the BBC, the Bright Young Things, etc. The writer gives equal time to misguided innocents, dunces and self-servers across the political spectrum. Very unlike his gentler later books about village life but as good in its own way.
