WINNER OF THE 1976 BOOKER PRIZE 'If you are looking for an
intellectual and artistic honesty, a patient thoughtfulness and
detailed insight into other lives...this novel will delight and
move you' Guardian In spite of his brilliance, Colin Saville
doesn't fit in easily at the grammar school in town - 1940s
middle-class society is so different from the mining village of his
childhood. He makes tentative friendships and meets girls over
long, empty summers but feels like an outsider with them and,
increasingly, at home. Following the pattern of David Storey's own
early years, Saville is a remarkably honest portrait of the
tensions between parents and children, the difficulties of making
one's own way in life, and the social divisions that persist still.
