Full English

A man spends a night at a B & B. Waking in the middle of the night, he recalls the trials and tribulations of an English adolescence and early manhood. This exquisite, tenderly observed and delightful Bildungsroman belongs to a genre which includes Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship, Sons and Lovers, The Catcher in the Rye, and Goodbye, Columbus - classic writing to which it very evidently owes nothing at all. <p/>Wildly inventive, stunning, brilliantly observed, stellar, inspiring, magical and groundbreaking, raw and emotional, urgent and of great importance, unique and chilling, inspirational, beautiful, superb, page-turning, brilliantly funny, a classic in the making, exquisite - just a few of the descriptions of new novels borrowed from the world of corporate publishing which plainly do not apply to Full English. Enjoy.
