The dazzling novel from critically-acclaimed David Mitchell.
Shortlisted for the 2006 Costa Novel Award Longlisted for the Man
Booker Prize 2006 January, 1982. Thirteen-year-old Jason Taylor -
covert stammerer and reluctant poet - anticipates a stultifying
year in his backwater English village. But he hasn't reckoned with
bullies, simmering family discord, the Falklands War, a threatened
gypsy invasion and those mysterious entities known as girls.
Charting thirteen months in the black hole between childhood and
adolescence, this is a captivating novel, wry, painful and vibrant
with the stuff of life.
