Some Place South of Perfect (Paperback)

'Later, Philip Anderson would remember the day as a succession of increasingly unlikely occurrences, the first of which was a glimpse of a neighbour's leg............' A chance meeting between two neighbours sparks a series of events which will affect the lives of a small, diverse group of people in London over the course of eight days in February 2010. Some Place South of Perfect is a wry depiction of interacting lives which examines how thin the margins between safety and danger, success and failure, happiness and misery really are. In a fast-moving, yet reflective, novel we see events through the eyes of an engaging roster of people; a narcissistic, philandering sportsman; a lovelorn journalist; taciturn bankers; idealistic academics; a couple attempting to reignite their marriage; musicians; youths from the wrong side of the tracks and amoral men from the margins of paramilitary organisations. Spiked through with acerbic observation, Some Place South of Perfect presents a microcosm of life as it is lived now and a new slant on age-old dilemmas.
